As a part of their promotional activities, Sui Dhaaga actors Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma had nominated their colleagues to take up the challenge last week wherein they had to share videos of themselves threading a needle on social media. Celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit and others had tried their luck with the sui and dhaaga.

Actors Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma are currently promoting Suji Dhaaga, which hits the theatres this Friday. Set in a small town Chanderi, Madhya Pradesh, Sui Dhaaga showcases the journey of a tailor Mauji (Varun Dhawan) and his embroiderer wife Mamta (Anushka Sharma), who wish to start their own clothing business.
In an interview to news agency PTI, Varun Dhawan had revealed why the film is "very special" for him and Anushka. "This film is very special for me and Anushka. I don't think I can describe the feeling in words. It's a sense of pride and a sense of what you feel to be an Indian. What it feels to be an Indian, we are never able to tell that to people. Patriotism doesn't always need to be said, it needs to be felt," Varun told PTI.
Sui Dhaaga has been directed by Sharat Katariya, who had earlier directed Dum Laga Ke Haisha.
