The teaser moves from a breezy romantic tune that adorns the backdrop of Utkarsh's love story with Ishita Chauhan, who will also make her debut with Genius. The teaser then swiftly moves to a more fast-paced portion where he is getting beaten up by goons, only to fight them back. The romantic background music is replaced by the antagonist Nawazuddin Siddiqui's unmistakably identifiable voice that claims what a tough fight Utkarsh is.

Genius, starring Utkarsh Sharma and Ishitha Chauhan, and directed by Utkarsh’s father and Gadar director Anil Sharma. The teaser was released online on Wednesday. Utakrsh previously played Jeetey as a child actor in Gadar. He plays the role of a RAW agent masquerading as a college student and in the trailer, he is seen falling in love with Ishitha’s character, which complicates matters.

Genius also stars Mithun Chakraborty and Ayesha Jhulka. While Nawazuddin’s villainous role is still under wraps, Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar-fame Ayesha Jhulka will play the mother of Ishita. The film's music is composed by Himesh Reshammiya. It has been backed by Anil Sharma Productions and Soham Rockstar Entertainment. Genius is slated to release on 24 August.

Dharmendra, who worked with the director and Utkarsh in Gadar took to Twitter to wish the team the best of luck. He wrote, “One of those overwhelming days when you feel pride and love in abundance. All the very best @iutkarsharma @Anilsharma_dir @genius_themovie wishing you all the success ahead.”
