During a special screening of the film in Mumbai, Union Minister Ramdas Athawale and Manoj Joshi were present. The Union Minister watched the film and expressed his appreciation for it. He said, "I watched this film and it is very good. It depicts the reality of Uttar Pradesh. Manoj Joshi has performed so well. There was a significant increase in lawlessness in UP, but when Yogi Adityanath became the Chief Minister, he took great efforts to eradicate crime.

I congratulate the lead actor Manoj Joshi, the producer, the director, and the entire team and crew associated with 'The UP Files'."

The writer of this film is no longer with us, but he wrote an excellent screenplay and dialogues."
