The trailer for Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas, starring Karan Deol and Sahher Bambba, dropped on 5 August. The film is directed by Bollywood actor Sunny Deol and marks the debut of his son Karan as well as Sahher.
The trailer begins with a typical boy-meets-girl scenario. Karan and Sahher’s characters seem to be on an adventure together. As they become more familiar with each other, they start to fall in love. Their week-long adventure is their paradise, but real life is not. The trailer is filled with cliche dialogues and from the looks of it, Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas seems like a run-of-the-mill Bollywood romance with nothing new to offer. There’s fun, there’s drama, there’s violence, there’s music. Apart from the debut faces, the trailer offers nothing.

Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas also stars Aakash Ahuja, Sachin Khedekar, Simone Singh, Megna Malik, Kamini Khanna, and Akash Dhar. A family production of sorts, the film is presented by Dharmendra. The trailer was originally supposed to release on 4 August. However, due to heavy downpour in Mumbai, the launch was rescheduled for the next day.
Earlier, the makers had released the title track of the film.
The title song is a soulful Punjabi love ballad with singers Arijit Singh and Parampara Thakur providing the vocals. It has been composed by Sachet-Parampara of "Bekhayali" fame and Rishi Rich. The lyrics have been penned by Siddharth and Garima.
The song is a tribute to the evergreen Dharmendra track of the same name but is not a remake.

While talking about his son’s debut, Sunny Deol was very clear about how he can help Karan navigate the industry only to a certain extent. He said, “When I came in the industry was I mentally prepared. I am sure he is coming in his own way the way I came in. Rest is up to him how he portrays himself, the subjects he chooses, how he does the job and that is all up to him. As a father, I am always there with him. But I can’t go and work for him or select things for him. It is up to us what we become as individuals.”
