Finally and secretly, a select audience and the media were invited to the Trailer Launch of, MSG-The Warrior 'Lion Heart', at the Mahi theatre in Sirsa.

b) MSG as an Indian James Bond avatar with a Love interest
The story is about medieval warrior who fought for the honor of his land and the respect of the womenfolk. The story travels centuries apart as he emerges in another role as a modern Indian equivalent of James Bond. But the best news is that there is a damsel playing his love interest opposite him. (The identity of the tall actress has been kept a secret) When the media asked him persistently on this, Dr MSG accepted and coolly replied that it was better to wait for the movie to see what emerges.
There is a triple role essayed by Dr MSG, each one as varied as chalk from cheese, where he has delivered a separate voice for every character.
c) Amazing story line of MSG: The Warrior ' Lion Heart':
Today, a top secret agent, 300 years ago, an ancient Warrior. Marauding aliens running amok, trying to overpower Planet Earth. Time travel… Romance… A twist in the tale.
The trailer drops hints, what it reveals is indicative, what it hides is curiosity amplifying. Believe it or not, we have never seen the makings of such a super script, executed on such a grand scale for a long, long time.
d) Dr MSG Supports Ajay Devgan for standing up against institutionalized corruption in film reviews
Responding to a pointed media question about the dichotomy between critics ratings and box office performance, Dr MSG spoke his mind candidly, agreeing that the disconnect is obvious.
He cited the example of Ajay Devgan's bold tweet and its fallout. Lauding Ajay Devgan for his courage, MSG said that Ajay has taken the right stand by bringing out the corruption. Citing an example, Dr MSG said that his first two films did quite well and the second was still running close to a year later. Dr MSG said, "Let them keep their film running in theatres for one year. Don't bother for their stars. Our stars are the audience and not the ratings. So many films rated sky high have not performed at the box office. Ajay Devgan has taken the right stand, if other people join hands, then critics will also improve."
Society has embraced the ethos of new age, positive film making, he observed.
e) Baap Beti ki Jodi debuts with Lion Heart
The credit line displays Baap Beti ki Jodi. Yes, this is a film directed by Dr MSG and his daughter Honeypreet who is also doing a role. Charanpreet Insan, Dr MSG's eldest daughter has also played an important role. Reminiscing the experience, Honeypreet said, "Having Papa around to contribute to every smallest detail kept me in the comfort zone throughout. He would not only remember his lines but also knew the lines of the other cast members by heart. And he has made the film a grand creative product." Responding to that, Dr MSG said that having Honeypreet as a supremely committed co-director and having found Santosh Thudiyil as a capable and quick, Director of Photography, made things unbelievably fast.
