The principal roles in director Sriram Raghavan’s upcoming film about the life of the youngest Param Vir Chakra laureate Arun Khetrpal will be played by veteran actor Dharmendra and megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson Agastya Nanda. On the occasion of Dharmendra’s 87th birthday, the cast of the movie was revealed by the producers.

The biopic will be produced by director Dinesh Vijan under the auspices of Maddock Films.

On the occasion of Arun Khetrpal’s 69th birthday, the project was originally revealed in 2019 with Varun Dhawan cast in the lead role. The coronavirus epidemic caused the picture to be delayed, which led to Dhawan’s departure due to a scheduling problem.

The second significant endeavour for Agastya, the son of Shweta Bachchan Nanda and Nikhil Nanda, is “Ikkis.” The young actor will star in Zoya Akhtar’s “The Archies” television series.

Suhana Khan, a daughter of Shah Rukh Khan, and Khushi Kapoor, a sister of Janhvi Kapoor, both make their acting debuts in the Netflix musical. It is set to launch on the streamer in 2023.
