Taking to his X handle, the actor wrote, "Couldn't have asked for a better start!! This movie is very close to my heart and the response from the audience is closer! Witnessing the tears, smiles, claps, whistles and hugs is all that we worked for and I can strongly say it's all paying off. Reading all your messages and watching the reels has been truly overwhelming (you guys made me cry as well)."
