In a video uploaded on his YouTube channel, Khanna said, “I would like to praise this film’s hero Ranveer Singh. Now you will cross question me by saying that you have disapproved him for the role of Shaktimaan. However, even if I have denied him, he remains one of the best actors. I have always maintained this stance. His infectious energy and courage are visible in the film.” Khanna further praised Singh adding that his “brooding” eyes suited the role of a spy from India navigating life in Pakistan and gradually becoming a gang member by gaining sympathy and saving the leaders’ son.
