“This film was completed in 38 days. If I had been in the film, it would have taken 138 days,” The Bajrangi Bhaijaan actor added.
Arbaaz Khan, while speaking about his character in the film, said, “I play Maqsood in the film, a side kick. He is a gangster, a petty thief and extortionist. When Ali (Nawazuddin’s character) is in trouble, he helps him. He shares a turbulent equation with Ali throughout the film.”
