Allowing the moviegoers to get a picture with Gateway of India at their ease in an instant had everyone intrigued, getting a phenomenal response from the locals across the nation.
In sync with the theme of the film, where Nawazuddin Siddiqui plays Rafi, a photographer at Gateway of India, the makers decided to practice this unique promotional strategy.
