While the details around Jackie Shroff’s role are being kept under tight wraps, it has been confirmed that Anil Kapoor will play a pivotal role as SRK’s handler and mentor in the film. According to sources, Kapoor’s gravitas and commanding screen presence made him the top pick for the part. “His charisma and experience bring just the right weight to guide SRK’s assassin character,” an insider revealed.
