In the trailer of this documentary, Vik can be seen discussing how their partnership “changed the course of the next 10 years of their lives”, whereas other members “talk about feuds within the group”.
After the documentary was announced, Vik said, “We’ve always tried to be open and honest about the highs and lows we’ve faced,” reported via Radio Times.
