In the first poster shared by the director, Ranbir reflects the time in Sanjay's life when the actor was released from Yerwada jail in February 2016 after serving his sentence with good behaviour and conduct. One of the most iconic and defining moments in Dutt's life, the actor when stepped out of the jail, touched the mother Earth and saluted to the national flag. Fans and media came pouring to greet the actor. The police had to restrain the mob which Rajkumar Hirani captured in a lens and is said to be the opening scene of the film.

During the teaser launch event, Ranbir was asked how he felt about stepping into Sanjay’s role and perfecting his mannerism, to which the actor said, “I felt really shy to mimic Sanjay Dutt. Sanju Sir ki nakal utarana was difficult as I did not want to disrespect him. I have always been a Sanjay Dutt fan. Hardest was to give myself confidence to do it. To have the courage and acting chops to do this role. To tell story of my icon, was the hardest."
