Varun on Citadel

Talking about the show, Varun said, "I think North, South, East, West, hopefully, everyone in India will like it. Please watch the show, guys. There are six episodes and we have just shown the first one and the response is just surreal. Samantha and I have worked very hard. The action is genuinely one step ahead of what you guys have seen so far. Hopefully, you will find this on global standards. For the first time, Russo Brothers are making a show in India. Raj and DK have made it. I think it's an action like you've never seen before. You will see never-seen-before avatars of me and Samantha."

Samantha added, "I am very excited! Everyone has been thrilled with the response to the first episode, and I'm looking forward to it. I think the excitement matches that of the trailer!"
