According to a report in Mid- Day, the actor and his styling team dedicated weeks to fnalise his look. Angad Bedi told Mid- Day, "We decided to stick to suits while playing with accessories. So, the rimless round spectacles were brought in, and a pocket watch was added to lend [an air of] arrogance." Talking about the challenges he faced to play the role in the 10-part web series, Bedi says, "To portray a real-life character is the toughest job. It is easy to play your age. But here, I play [an older] man who is sure of himself and has never lost a case in his life. To internalise Karl, I spent time studying his body language. I also read up on the laws prevalent in the 1950s.”

With such a challenging role, we can’t wait to see how the actor manages to pull it off!
