To which Deepika Padukone congratulated the team and replied, "Congratulations!& can't wait to watch the film!"

Speaking of the film Veere Di Wedding, the veere's Sonam, Kareena, Swara and Shikha went out and out to promote this film. In one of the interactions, Sonam made it clear that this film is not a feminist one.

She stated, "Just because people saw four girls who are in a certain urban setting being realistic to what young urban working women, what their lifestyle is... a lot of us who come from this background, we do curse, we do drink. And we are sexually active. We are not sitting waiting till we get married".

To this her co-star Swara further added, "Swara further said, "Just because we are showing that on screen why is that becoming an issue? When we allow our male characters to be as close to reality as possible, why can't we let our women have that?".

The makers had always refrained from calling this film just a 'chick-flick'. Producer Rhea Kapoor, in a statement to IANS, said, "Calling the film a chick flick would put it in a bracket. At a juncture where we are trying to break away from labels, it's high time we had a film that doesn't judge women and at the same time is aspirational."

Directed by Shashanka Ghosh, Veere Di Wedding released on 1^st June 2018.
