Irrfan was earlier supposed to play the titular role in the film which then went to Vicky.
Vicky will also begin shooting for Karan Johar’s Takht in February 2020. “We will start shooting for Takht in February. The preparations are in full force at the moment. I will first finish the shooting of ‘Sardar Udham Singh’ and then move ahead with the shooting of Takht,” he told news agency IANS.
Takht will revolve around the rivalry between Mughal emperor Shahjahan’s sons, Aurangzeb and Dara Shikoh for the throne. Actors Ranveer Singh and Vicky Kaushal will play Dara Shikoh and Aurangzeb, respectively.
