Actor Samir Soni, whose directorial debut 'My Birthday Song' is releasing on Friday, says he is feeling the pressure to live upto the expectation of the audience and celebrities who have tweeted in favour of the film. "The audience has given a positive feedback to the trailer of our movie. From the industry, Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Karan Johar and Ekta Kapoor praised the trailer of the film, so I am really happy. I am also feeling some pressure to live up to their expectations.

"We have made this film on our choice and I think we have made a good film. Therefore, I am sure that the youth audience is definitely going to enjoy this film," Samir said at a special screening of the film here on Tuesday. The screening was attended by producer Sanjay Suri, Rohit Roy, Sangeeta Bijlani, Neetu Singh, Sohail Khan, Chunky Pandey, Tusshar Kapoor, Nora Fatehi, Sanjay Kapoor, Sonali Bendre and Neelam Kothari Soni.

Samir said when Sanjay agreed to produce the movie, he was happy to join hands with him "thinking other producers may force us to incorporate item song or action sequence in the movie. But now we have made this movie just as we wanted".
