Ahead of the streaming of Laxmii, Raghava had penned a note on his Facebook page. He wrote, "My Hindi debut direction movie Laxmii is releasing on Disney+ Hotstar at 7:05 pm today. Through Tamil movie, Kanchana I wanted to convey the pain and struggles of transgenders and the movie received a lot of appreciation from transgenders' community and the public. Similarly, when Akshay sir is acting in its Hindi remake, I hope the message will reach to a wider audience. Normally actors won't accept such tough roles but I believe Akshay sir being such a good human being he cares a lot for the society and previously he has given so many good message films. My special thanks to Akshay sir for accepting and doing this role."
