Sharing the teaser, Arbaaz wrote, "His journey is truly a legendary tale! Watch Mr Javed Akhtar reveal the secret to his amazing personality on The Invincibles..." Among a series of questions about his work and personal life, Arbaaz asked Javed, "Ek successful marriage ki kya recipe hai (what is the recipe for a successful marriage)?" To which, Javed replied, "Living with an independent strong-minded woman is not a bed of roses. Kahin aap ko push bhi karna padega, magar push aap equal ko kar rahe hain (sometimes you have to push her, but you should always remember that she is your equal)."
