At the second teaser launch on Tuesday, Ajay Devgn said, “When Drishyam 2 emerged as a super hit, I often told people that we need more such films that get a similar response. The coldness in theatres that happened amid the pandemic made people want to come back more. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I wish whichever films release should be a super duper hit. The whole industry is one. Pathaan is also getting such a fantastic response so I am very happy”

Watching the clip on Twitter, Shah Rukh Khan, who was hosting the #AskSRK session, responded to Ajay’s best wishes by saying, “Ajay has been a pillar of support and love to me and my family for years. He is a wonderful actor and beautiful human being. Strong and silent.”
