On May 23, the cast and crew of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai came together in Mumbai for the trailer launch of the movie.

Amid the controversy, Varun Dhawan introduced Girish Kumar by singing a song at the event. After concluding the intro para, the actor quipped, “Ramesh ji, iss gaane ke rights hai na?” To this, David Dhawan replied, “We have all the rights!”

Whatever we had, has been sorted," Taurani said, while adding that no promotional activities or the film's release would be halted. He further said, "And whatever comes next will also be sorted. So, there is no problem. And it's a sub judice matter. So, we are handling it." The controversy centres around allegations made by Vashu Bhagnani regarding the recreation and reuse of songs associated with one of his films without his consent.
