He added that Salman was a hands-on producer and had in-depth knowledge on all departments of film making.

Samjhi said each and every member of the production team, from the light boy to the camera man, had contributed to the making of the film. The film is being showcased as a family entertainer. The movie is a remake of popular Tamil movie Veeram. To capitalise on Eid, the movie was released in theatres on April 21.
