"Bang Bang" features Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles

Bang Bang team, including actors Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif, are overwhelmed with the response to the film’s teaser, which attracted over 2.3 million YouTube views in 24 hours.

The teaser for the action-packed movie was unveiled on the video-sharing platform Wednesday morning, and the number of views has been on a rise ever since.

The film’s production banner Fox Star Studios, director Siddharth Anand and actors are in a celebratory mood.

Roshan, who has made the wait for the film’s release tough for movie buffs with his death-defying stunts in the teaser, is proud of the “entire Bang Bang team and especially Sid Anand for achieving this milestone”.

“I’m happy that we were able to give 58 seconds of joy to all the viewers. It’s all about them eventually. Gratitude,” said Roshan in a statement. The actor is seen performing death-defying stunts in the teaser. “I am proud of the entire Bang Bang team and especially Sid Anand for achieving this milestone,” he added.

Kaif said: “It is truly an overwhelming response for our teaser and I’m very happy that everyone is waiting for Bang Bang as eagerly as all of us.”

Bang Bang is due to release October 2 in India, and promises edge-of-the-seat excitement and adrenaline-pumping action.

Vijay Singh, CEO, Fox Star Studios, is “absolutely thrilled” with the response to the trailer, while the director said: “Apart from the numbers, which are astounding so say the least, it’s the reactions which are numbing.”

“Every crew member has worked in extreme conditions to present the visuals which are, to put it politely, blowing everyone’s minds. So well done team — the journey has just begun and what a beginning! Thank you audience,” said Anand, who had earlier directed Salaam Namaste, Ta Ra Rum Pum and Anjaana Anjaani.
