Asking the police and locals not to trouble their families, the couple warned youngsters against doing things against their parents' wishes. "Those who live the life as per their wishes and do work accordingly, they are destined to the same ill and tragic fate as they do," the couple added. Lastly, they requested the folk singers to make songs on their love story and to release the album with their photos.

A day before the couple uploaded the video threatening to commit suicide, a team of police personnel visited Jaipur and searched possible locations of Keer and his partner. However, none of them was found. Cops were continuing the search for the couple.
