The trailer of the love story was unveiled with fanfare with Nagarjuna also making an appearance.

At the trailer launch event, Nagarjuna said, "After seeing ‘Ye Maya Chesave’, I was awestruck by the music, story and the chemistry between the hero and heroine.  

“After four years, they both acted with me in ‘Manam’ and I couldn’t suspect or find out that there is something going on between them. They both made sure that I didn’t know anything and after a few months, I realised they were already in love with each other.”

Continuing with a funny story, the ‘Brahmastra’ star added, “In fact, when Sam came to my house, my pet dog was very friendly towards her which is when she revealed that she had visited my house several times and that she knew Leo (our dog) very well!” 

The couple might not be much at fault since Samantha had recently revealed that it took them eight years to reach the same space in the relationship. Nevetheless, the family would hope for 'Majili' to work wonders at the box office.
