@BeingSalmanKhan @IChitrangda @LakhiaApoorva @JasonThamIndia @TheAnkurBhatia @TanyaDesai4 It would be a blockbuster. This movie has suffering, joy, courage, attitude on the battleground, and also suffering. Fear of losing and not back down

Not all reactions were positive, with several viewers criticising the trailer's dialogue delivery, voice modulation and storyline. While one called it “cringe”, another felt the VFX could not make up for a weak story. Some also complained that the trailer revealed too much, while a few appreciated the visuals.
@BeingSalmanKhan @IChitrangda @LakhiaApoorva @JasonThamIndia @TheAnkurBhatia @TanyaDesai4 It's cringe bro, the voice modulation and expressions not matching, more dialogues than the story narrative

@BeingSalmanKhan @IChitrangda @LakhiaApoorva @JasonThamIndia @TheAnkurBhatia @TanyaDesai4 Lacks Appeal, story doesn't look riveting, VFX cannot cover for a bad story. Fans want to see you in movies like Sultan and Wanted, choose good scripts, best wishes Salman bhai.
