Earlier when he watched the trailer he got emotional and his eyes were with tears. After watching the trailer he said, “The way Rajkumar Hirani has presented Ranbir is the biggest, superb thing. The boy has really done well. I am so proud of him. I swear on Neetu and Ranbir, I did not think it was Ranbir, I thought it was Sanjay Dutt. You don’t know how emotionally triggered I am right now where Vinod (Chopra) and Raju (Rajkumar Hirani) have shown me this trailer. The first appearance of Ranbir from the jail, I thought it was Sanjay Dutt.”
