Super 30 marks Roshan’s return to films after a gap of two years. Besides Roshan, the film also stars Mrunal Thakur, Amit Sadh, and Nandish Sandhu in pivotal roles.

Recently, Bihar Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi had declared the film tax-free in the state . Following the announcement, Roshan had met with Modi as well as Kumar in Patna. At a press conference the actor said to Press Trust of India, “The journey of Super 30 has been a long one. I consider myself lucky to have known, in the process, Anand sir. I got the opportunity to visit this city on the day of Guru Poornima and I have sought the blessings of Anand sir after touching his feet.”
Super 30 was also made tax-free in Rajasthan on 18 July (Thursday), with Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot calling it an “inspiration” and an “excellent example of exceptional willpower and determination.”
