He is one of the most versatile actors that I’ve come across and Pankaj as PR Man Singh in my head was the perfect match. The character of Man Singh is going to be a discovery for the audience.”
He further quipped, “As manager, he was an integral member of the winning team of 1983 and the players often said to me that without Man bhai they would not have pulled it off.
