On May 16, Kartik shared his second poster from the film, showing him looking intense with an injured face at a boxing rink. The actor had his boxing gloves on and wore a mouthguard as blood oozed from the side of his eyes.

Director Kabir Khan praised Kartik Aaryan's dedication in a long note. He highlighted the actor's hard work and his physical transformation, which was achieved without steroids. A part of his note read: "The story of Chandu Champion is an incredibly inspiring true story but the journey that Kartik went through to become this champion is no less inspiring. I met him when he had put on weight for a role. He had 39 per cent body fat. I told him that he had to portray an international level multi-disciplinary sportsperson. He just smiled and said 'I will do it Sir.' A year and a half later with no use of steroids - something that he was adamant about - we took this photo on set. Body fat 7 per cent!! I’m proud of you @kartikaaryan."

The trailer of 'Chandu Champion' will be launched in Kartik Aaryan's hometown, Gwalior, marking a special return for the actor. 'Chandu Champion' is jointly produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Kabir Khan and directed by Kabir Khan. The film is set for a theatrical release on June 14, 2024.
