Khan said about his comments, ‘‘Many have did not understand of my comments, the way I actually wanted to explain.[citation needed] I mean, while I love making films, I also have a lot of experience. In that sense I have called myself a doctorate. Despite thousands of adversities, I am ready to make films. I meant it.’’[35]

On the other hand, the director of the film Malek Afsari said about Khan's statements that, ‘‘The Sundarbans is a jungle, there are no five star hotels. As long as I stay, I have to trouble. This is what he meant that, even if leave me in the Sundarbans, I can make international quality films.’’[36]

He claimed that it was a basic story film before its release. The audiences complainted that it was a remake of the 2015 Telugu language film Dynamite which itself was a remake of 2014 Tamil Language film Arima Nambi after watching the trailer of the film.[37] However, director of the film Malek Afsari, denied it and announced a reward of ৳1 million if the film could prove to be a copy of an Indian or Tamil language film.[38][39]

After the film's release the audiences complained that the film script and story similar with the 2014 South Korean film The Target which itself was remake of 2010 French film Point Blank.[40] Later, the film's co-producer Mohammad Iqbal indirectly acknowledged the copy story in a video message. The film director Malek Afsari, said on social media that he did not know that the story of the film was copy. However, later, he deleted that status.[41] Then he made four arguments in favor of the originality of the film on social media.[39][40]

On June 17, 2019, a film personality named Anand Kutum filed a complaint against the film with the Censor Board alleging forgery of the story.[42][43] After reviewing the film the censor board members find some similarities in this film with some scenes from The Target and warned the producer and director not to match any other film in the future and again the film was cleared by the censors.[44][45][46]

Besides that, music director Shawkat Ali Emon has accused to copying tune against the film's song Agun Lagailo. He complained that the tune of the song was similar with his composed song Chandra Tara which was released on March 18, 2019.[47][48][49] In this regard, Malek Afsari said, "Now Password is successful. So many people will talk negatively about it. Everyone will want to share its success."[50] He added, "I have heard the song too. It has similarities with the melody of Shawkat Ali Emon's song. The person who composed the tune of this song will be able to answer why he did it."[50] Then, the song's composer Lincoln came live on social media and stated that he composed the song in 2017.[51] and show the audio file of a song from the audio files stored on his mobile phone. There he showed that the audio file had been saved in 2017 on his mobile phone. However, many are reluctant to accept his argument as an irrefutable argument.
