The pre-release event of 'LIE' was held in a grand manner. Trivikram Srinivas, Sukumar, Santosh Srinivas, among others, graced the event as guests.

Brahmaji said, "Nithiin is not like a cinema hero; he is a nice human being. He will definitely become a superstar. I have done a very small character in 'LIE'. I have written the film's additional screenplay."

Santosh Srinivas said, "This banner, 14 Reels, is like my home banner. Its producers are like my brothers. The making values of 'LIE' are quite apparent in the trailer. I wish that the banner makes a lot of money with this movie."

Cinematographer Yuvraj said, "I want to thank my guru Rathnavelu sir. This film has come out very well, for which I have to thank my producers. I thank Hanu."

Senior actress Poornima, who is playing Nithiin's mother in the movie, thanked Hanu for the "powerful role". "This film will give me a break for sure," she said.

Comedian Madhunandan said, "We had a lot of fun while shooting in the US for 75 days."

Director Sukumar said, "There are two types of directors: those who direct in the 'edit room' and those who direct on the sets. The Trailer of 'LIE' is something else. The producers at 14 Reels are my favourite people. I saw their passion when I was making '1:Nenokkadine'. Cinematographer Yuvraj worked as Rathnavelu's assistant. I am very happy to see him in this position today. Editor Sekhar is a very good editing talent. I was the assistant director of Nithiin's 'Dil'. My association with him started then. Nithiin was the first audience of 'Arya'. Actually, he was among the first ones to whom I narrated its story. It's like he is my first hero. I am glad to see him in this tough role in 'LIE'. He has so much of emotion in him. I saw tears in his eyes when 'Johnny' flopped. He has been a big PK fan."

Anil Sunkara said, "This film will bring everybody of us good name. We worked and lived like a family.

Hanu Raghavapudi said, "It's because of the unflinching efforts of my team that this film has been possible. I only had a plot line when I discussed this project with producer Ramu garu, who advised that 'LIE' should open from the villain's perspective. That changed everything. On a day, Nithiin was so down with fever during the US schedule, yet he shot for a chase sequence. Megha Akash is more like a sister to everyone. She is so young. Yuvraj has worked so hard that nobody else could have ensured the kind of quality in so short a time. Editor Sekhar is someone who maintains emotional balance on the sets, without which a film can slip out of your hand. The tough 75-day journey in the US wouldn't have been possible without him. The lyrics have been penned by KK and Kasarla Shyam. KK is an extraordinary lyricist, who works on each sentence as if he is working on a book. Shyam is extremely talented and he has written 'Bombhat' song. Mani Sharma garu never does anything wrong. He has given great output. He worked so hard on RR that he worked like a new musician."

Megha Akash said, "This film is very special to me. I thank Mani Sharma sir and Raju Sundaram sir. Yuvraj sir has shown me beautifully. Nithiin has been so big a support. Without Hanu sir, the film wouldn't have been possible."

Nithiin said, "The great output we are seeing today is because of the team effort. My hair stylist Vijay and my close friend Neeraja Kona (costume designer) put in a lot of efforts to get my look right. The first Teaser is very important in deciding a film's fate. And our teaser became a big hit because of the way Sekhar cut it. He was in the US with us for 70 days, foregoing many offers. Yuvraj's visuals are great, which also went into making the Teaser such a big hit. My producers didn't try to capitalize on my hit 'A Aa'. They were patient and let us make the film in the right way. Megha Akash has a bright future in Tollywood. Hanu is a very, very hard working director. Everybody works hard, but he had to shoot without a single assistant director for 30 days because of Visa issues. He hardly slept for 3 hours during those days. For the past 6 months, he has hardly slept well. He is mad about filmmaking. His wife is pregnant, but Hanu hasn't been able to spend time with her in this important phase. But I am sure that his wife will be very proud after the release of 'LIE'. Mani Sharma garu is a legend. His RR for this movie is of international standards. Pawan Kalyan garu couldn't come here; but his soulmate, Trivikram garu, is present. My 25th film is under Kalyan garu's production. What more can I ask for as a fan? Because of Arjun garu, the film's range has increased."

Trivikram Srinivas said, "Sukumar has talked of two kinds of directors. I am of the third kind: he who thinks I should have made it otherwise after the film's release. I am a fan of Mani Sharma garu, with whom I have done 3 movies. None of us is experienced to talk about him. He is wearing new clothes now. He is back. 14 Reels' producers are my favourites. I never got an opportunity to say this to them. Vijaya Vahini, AVM, Ramanaidu garu, etc, and, in our generation, 14 Reels, were/are passionate, experimental producers. The three producers at 14 Reels are very courageous producers who bounce back even when they hit a roadblock. I had approached Arjun garu for a film. He finally did this movie."
