There will be innovative ways and every film will have a different way of marketing. But as far as I am concerned, I wouldn”t go and keep somebody else marketing as my standard. I will have my own way of breathing my film out,” said Khan.

Khan has invited selected barbers and hairstylists along with their spouses to the premiere of the film.
“The story is about hairdressers. So we want the hairdressers to watch the film with their spouses. Premieres are thronged by stars generally. We want the real stars (hairdressers) to come and watch the film,” said Khan.
Khan plays a popular Bollywood actor in `the film, which is about a village hairdresser and his friendship with a movie star.
“Billu Barber””, directed by Priyadarshan and produced by Khan, is all set for release around Valentine’’s Day.
