The actor has taken time off and is training with akhada fighters to play Satbir Gujjar, a person who changed the insight of the Gujjar community.

To achieve this, the actor has even taken along free-style fighters from Mumbai to Panchgani to learn the trade and tricks of this old Indian sport. Incidentally, Aamir

Khan has done a similar fight sequence in Mangal Pandey (2005) and now Vivek Oberoi is leaving no stone unturned to master this art.
