The film's production banner Fox Star Studios, director Siddharth Anand and actors Hrithik and Katrina are in a celebratory mood.
Hrithik, who has made the wait for the film's release tough for movie buffs with his death-defying stunts in the teaser, is proud of the "entire 'Bang Bang' team and especially Sid Anand for achieving this milestone".
"I'm happy that we were able to give 58 seconds of joy to all the viewers. It's all about them eventually. Gratitude," he said in a statement.

Vijay Singh, CEO, Fox Star Studios, is "absolutely thrilled" with the response to the trailer, while the director said: "Apart from the numbers, which are astounding so say the least, it's the reactions which are numbing."

So well done team - the journey has just begun and what a beginning! Thank you audience," said Anand, who had earlier directed "Salaam Namaste", "Ta Ra Rum Pum" and "Anjaana Anjaani".
