After making the announcement, Ajay also shared an official statement: “Dear Friends, Runway 34 is a film inspired by true events. Today, as I launch the posters with the release date and now title, I need to share a little something with you. Without actually revealing anything about the story because it's an emotional, high-octane thriller (naturally, I can't give away the spoilers), I can tell you what drew me to this movie like a magnet (sic).”

He added, “Close your eyes and think - each and every one of us must have been in situations in life when we've felt all powerful for one moment and felt completely helpless the next minute. We’ve all been through that moment when we've felt we can conquer the world and yet the very next situation has thrown us out of gear. That 'storm’ brewing within you, playing with your emotions, tearing you up, that turbulent ride that makes you ask - is this a nightmare? Or is this real? These are the sentiments associated with Runway 34. It's got terrific highs, alarming lows, a sense of jubilance and dejection, all within the screenplay (sic).”

The movie marks Devgn's third directorial, after 'U Me Aur Hum' in 2008 and 'Shivaay' in 2016.
