But Chhabra now shows her most satisfying casting. He told Hindustan Times, “I could say everything. But Sara Arjun it’s a new talent. It was a challenge to find a new girl for this role among such a big star.’ He also added that the positive reception of his performance strengthened their resolve: “And then to stand out in this way felt very good.”First known as a child actress, Sara Arjun appeared in films like ‘Ponniyin Selvan’, ‘Ek Thi Daayan’ and ‘Saivam’. ‘Dhurandhar’ marked his first outing as a leading man, where he portrayed Yalina. Mukesh also highlighted how casting actors against type was particularly rewarding. “Young surprise Gaurav Gera and Rakesh Bedi was also delightful,” he shared. While Gaurav Gera stepped into the role of Aalam, an Indian spy who runs a milk soda shop in Karachi, Rakesh Bedi portrayed the sinister Pakistani politician Jameel Jamali in two episodes, in widely acclaimed performances.Listing the more notable choices, Mukesh said, “I liked the actors we got in Uzair Baloch (Danish Pandor) and Babu Dakait (Asif Ali Haider Khan). Then the casting of Nawaz Sharif and Atiq Ahmed was highly debated. So there were many castings in this film that gave me joy. Every person we cast in this film was perfect.”
