The video ends with the introduction of Nawazuddin taking up the stage as Bal Thackeray to address a rally.

"It's an honour and pride to portray the real king of the country on screen. Here comes the teaser of ‘Thackeray'. Hearty thanks to Shri Uddhav Thackeray, Sanjay Raut, Amitabh Bachchan and Abhijit Panse," Nawazuddin wrote alongside the teaser.
