But before the trailer launch, Vicky sought blessings for himself and for the film.He was spotted visiting Sarvdharm Sthal of 6th Battalion Sikh regiment.
Talking about his journey in the film, Vicky had revealed at the teaser launch, “The journey of Sam… started with Raazi for me. We were shooting in Patiala and were holed up in a hotel when Meghna first mentioned that she is thinking of this film next. I had heard about him but didn’t know what he looked like. While talking to her, I discreetly Googled his image and I thought to myself, ‘he’s so handsome, I won’t get this role!’ But somewhere this wish got planted in the universe because she spoke so highly of this legend. In May 2019, I got a call from her and met her at her place in Bandra where she again spoke at length about the film and Manekshaw sir’s journey and told me to go through the script. I was flying to New York that night and I read the script on the flight. I was waiting for those 15 hours to get over so I could call her up and say ‘I am doing this, please don’t look anywhere else!’ (Laughs) We have tried to imbibe the spirit of the man through the film.”
