Shershaah was his code sign and the film pays tribute to his bravery.

The actor plays the courageous captain, Kapil Dev in the film. Kapil was in his early 20s when he was given the onus of captaining the Indian cricket team during the 1983 world cup. He not only marshalled his troops in an exemplary manner but also played a heroic innings of 175 not-out against Zimbabwe when India was 17-5 during the group stage.
Vicky Kaushal has given his soul to playing Udham Singh. It’s his best performance till date.

What gives her hope is the dedication of the forestry staff who carry on their duties diligently despite the hardships.

Pankaj Tripathi is in top form here as a driver with a conscience. He doesn’t abandon Mimi to her fate and bears up with everything life throws at him to help her. He’s in her corner throughout and the sincerity he generates is palpable.
Sai Tamhankar plays Kriti Sanon’s best friend in the film. She’s not judgemental at all and supports her buddy through every thick and thin. Her comic timing was spot on and she said much through her quicksilver expressions and body language.
