Taking to her social media, Irani shares the trailer and writes, "How many think "ki maar pitai sirf gareeb auraton ke hi pati karte hai" How many believe "ki educated aadmi kabhi haath nahi uthata" How many tell their girls their daughter in laws" koi baat nahi beta aisa to humare saath bhi hua lekin dekho aaj kitne khush hai". "I might not support the political ideology of the director or may disagree with some actors on some issues but this is a story that I will definitely watch and hope people watch it with their families." The actress ended her statement saying, "It’s not ok to hit a woman ... not even a slap ... not even JUST one slap (sic)".

Madam I send you heartfelt respect and gratitude for your kind words. It will be wonderful to show you the film as soon as it is ready and I shall reach out to your good office to find an appropriate time to your convenience. Thanks again Madam."
