Jyotika is such a powerhouse performer. After her amazing work in Tamil cinema, it's great to see her doing a Hindi film with a star like Sunny. Hope her role is substantial and not just decorative. Fingers crossed! 🤞

Honestly, I'm more excited about 'Gabru'. Sunny sir said it's close to his heart, and the team behind it sounds solid. Mithoon's music is always a treat. May 8th can't come soon enough! Jai Hind! 🇮🇳

The article mentions an "intimate puja" before starting. I love that our film industry still holds on to these traditions for good luck. It shows respect for our culture amidst all the glamour. Wishing the entire team all the very best!

Interesting collaboration. Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment usually backs quality content. Balaji Ganesh is a new director to watch. Hope the story is as strong as the producer lineup.

While I'm a fan, I hope the new film offers something beyond the usual "dhai kilo ka haath" persona. Sunny Deol has shown great emotional depth in films like 'Ghayal'. Would love to see more of that versatility again.
