"It has exceeded my wildest expectations by people calling it one of the best trailers to have come out of Bollywood."
Actor Ranbir Kapoor, who is playing the role of Sanjay in the film, had said: "When I was a child, I had a poster of Sanju Sir on the wall of my cupboard, and through this film, I am in his shoes. I think in my life, I really want Sanju Sir to like me."
