Sharing her excitement, Alizeh said, "This feels like a dream come true. I've been attending IIFA since I was a kid, and to now be standing on this stage, accepting an award for my own film, is surreal. Being part of Farrey as my debut project has been such a rewarding and incredible journey as an actor, and I couldn't have asked for a better start. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Somendra sir, K Kohl, Nikhil, my family, and the entire team for giving me this amazing opportunity. I'm so grateful for all of it—thank you so much!"

A user wrote, "You out of your mind when 12th fail and Sam Bahudur are in the nomination, how can you give this award to Animal and Animal has no good story even. The actor and music of Animal is good but as a whole movie, animal is below average."

Another user said, "I can't believe that the audience chose it as the best picture ..as per the rules.."

Farrey premiered at the 54th International Film Festival of India and it was released theatrically on November 24, 2023.

Alizeh is the daughter of actor, and filmmaker Atul Agnihotri and Alvira Khan (sister of Salman Khan). She has an elder brother named Ayaan Agnihotri.

Alizeh made her acting debut as a child in her father Atul Agnihotri's directorial film 'Hello'. The 2008 thriller film starred Sharman Joshi, Sohail Khan, Gul Panag, Isha Koppikar, Amrita Arora, and Sharat Saxena in the lead roles.

The film was based on Chetan Bhagat's novel, 'One Night @ the Call Center'. It also had cameo roles by Salman and Katrina Kaif.
