The actor recently visited the capital for the movie's promotional events accompanied by his co-stars Raashii Khanna and Disha Patani. He was quizzed about the same at a press conference regarding back-to-back releases based on men-in-uniform.

Sidharth, while interacting with the media at a press conference in New Delhi said, “I think it just happened by chance (signing back-to-back patriotic films). I may be drawn a little more to the uniform, nothing looks better on a man than uniform regardless of any form of service in the country. This is a fictitious uniform so we've done the army, we've done the police, I have created my own Yodha unit so that I can wear another version of a uniform here.”

The actor also pointed out that the film also depicts romance despite its serious theme. He added, “Yodha does have a hint of love story, as you can see in the trailer. It is not such a dry character but it is not a complete love story but we are right here, promoting a Dharma Productions film so maybe you should ask Mr Karan Johar when is he making his next romantic film for me to do.”
