Gippy Grewal on Trailer launch event
Grewal informed ANI that he welcomed famous Bollywood stars like Aamir Khan and Salman Khan not exclusively to boost the reach of his film trailers but to raise the popularity of Punjabi film industry with such cooperative efforts with Bollywood superstars.

Salman at the trailer launch event commented on how the yardstick of box-office success is beyond being merely a part of the 100-crore club. He stated, “I think the 100 crores concept has become a thing of the past now. We must all aim for box-office successes worth 1000 crores, (laughs). But, to be honest, I feel it’s high-time that all Indian films of all languages should do good business.”
