Sharing the look, the makers wrote, "Here’s presenting Adheera from KGF Chapter 2.” Before sharing the Adheera look, the makers shared a build-up poster to pique the audience’s curiosity.

KGF Chapter 1 was basically a Kannada film which was presented in Hindi by the Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani led Excel Entertainment.
