The teaser was broadcasted at a grand trailer launch in Mumbai on Monday. At the trailer launch, Ajay Devgn conversed with the media and fielded a mixture of questions.

When asked about the recent phenomenon of South films doing better at the box office than Hindi films, Ajay Devgn said a good film is more important than the language or film industry.

Retorting the question, Mr. Devgn answered back, "It has just been 5 months since cinema halls have opened. Whenever a good film comes, be it South, Hindi or Hollywood, they will do well. I think there have not been enough big films from Bollywood. When a good big film releases, it will work. Sooryavanshi has done well."
