Puri Jagannadh also said that the country has seen many movies on boxing but Liger is different, adding that the lead actor has a problem with stammering.

While promoting the film, Vijay Deverakonda talked about the Boycott Liger trend and said, “kaun rokenge dekh lenge (we will see who will stop us)’. The actor also added that he was sure people would like Liger because they made the film with lots of love and hard work.

News agency ANI quoted Vijay Deverakonda as saying, “With Liger we expected a bit of drama…but we’ll fight. We’ve put our heart into making this film. And I believe that I am correct. I feel that there is no room for fear, when I had nothing, I didn’t fear, and now after having achieved something, I don’t think there needs to be any fear even now. Maa ka aashirwaad hai, Logon ka pyaar hai, Bhagwaan ka haath hai, andar aag hai, Kaun rokenge dekh lenge (We have mother’s blessings, people’s love, God’s support, a fire inside us, we will see who will stop us)!".
