Taking to his Twitter handle on Wednesday, October 27, the Lover star shared the film's poster, which read “#1 North Indian Film of the year. Rs 38.15 crore worldwide gross!! on Day 11. Enjoy with your family”. For the caption, he wrote, "Madam Ji Can You Correct My Poje  ENJOY FOLKS." Take a look. 

Directed by  Amarjit Singh Saron, the film also stars child actor Shinda Grewal, who essays the role of Diljit’s son. The film also garnered special attention as it marked Shehnaaz Gill's first release after the death of her rumoured beau, Sidharth Shukla. Taking a long hiatus post the shocking news, Gill was back with the cast for the film's promotions. Ahead of the film's release, Diljit had also uploaded a photo with Shehnaaz, calling her a 'strong woman'. 

Meanwhile, Shehnaaz and late actor Sidharth Shukla’s last song Habit was recently released by the makers. The song, which has been crooned by Shreya Ghoshal and Arko Pravo Mukherjee, is an ode to the actor, who passed away on September 2 due to a cardiac arrest. The music video showcases Gill lip-syncing the lyrics in an emotionally wrought state, coupled with glimpses of some behind-the-scenes clips from the duo's earlier shoot in Goa. Upon its release, Ghoshal dedicated the song to all Sidnaaz fans.
