As the trailer progresses, Vijay says that he wants to be remembered for having done something great. He confides in his friend, played by Chunky Panday, about his idea of competing in a triathlon and making a new record in India. As he tells his family and friends, everyone makes fun of him and also scolds him. Mihir Ahuja's character is seen helping him train.

Fighting with everyone, Vijay begins his journey to take part in the triathlon but ends up in the hospital. Even after exercising and practising for four months, his application is rejected. Vijay is seen going through a roller coaster of emotions. Chunky's character becomes his unwavering supporter and enthusiastic cheerleader. The video ends with Vijay participating in the triathlon as he says, “Sapno ki koi expiry date nahi hoti (There is no expiry date of dreams).”

Akshay said in a statement, “Vijay 69 is about second chances and the gap between ‘what we thought we’d become and what we actually became’; it is about passion, determination and that timeless ingredient called perseverance - whether you're overcoming life's hurdles or training for a triathlon."

Akshay added, "Working with Anupam Sir was a gift — not only did he commit himself fully to the part; he also brought a depth and authenticity to the role that only the rarest of actors can. It was also a pleasure to work once again with my producer, Maneesh Sharma, to bring this YRF Entertainment and Netflix collaboration to fruition. The intention has been to craft a feel-good film that will, hopefully, resonate with audiences across generations. ”
