Now, it is learnt that the latest addition to the cast is actor Angad Bedi. As per reliable sources, the actor will be playing the role of a hockey player and will most probably play Sandeep’s brother Bikramjeet. He will reportedly get some training in the sport for his role. 

Speaking about Bedi’s role, a source said, “An important part of the story revolves around the two brothers, with the older one making Sandeep realize what hockey really means to him.
