“It’s not a quintessential sports film, but something very ‘special’. One can bracket it as an inspirational slice of life sports film and it falls right in the alley of brand Aamir. Being a film set against the backdrop of sport, it calls for a big ensemble. However, the casting will begin, once Aamir officially signs the contract,” the source added.
