Directors like Karan Johar, Anand L Rai, Sabbir Khan, Meghna Gulzar, Nikhil Advani, Hansal Mehta among others appreciated the trailer and wished the film a good luck.

Hansal Mehta too appreciated the trailer saying, "What fun! Saajan with loads of smiles... ?@Ashwinyiyer ?@RajkummarRao ?@ayushmannk ?@kritisanon."

Kriti essays the character of a bold and rebellious Bitti, who break dances and watches English films.

Ayushmann as Chirag is head over heels for Bitti and reflects the typical lovestruck small-town guy. Rajkumar Rao dons two avatars one as a timid saree seller and the other as the funny mawali.

The film presents a quirky love triangle, wherein Bitti, played by Kriti, is in the search for her groom, while Ayushmann and Rajkumar's characters Chirag and Pritam are seen competing for her love.

Set in the backdrop of a small town, Bareilly, the trailer is refreshing and delightful in its approach.

The film brings together an ensemble cast with Kriti, Rajkummar and Ayushmann teaming up for the first time on screen.

'Bareilly Ki Barfi,' which is produced by Abhay Chopra and Juno Chopra's BR Studio in association with Junglee Pictures, is scheduled to be released on 18th August.
