He revealed that his bond with Shikhar is identical to the one he shares with Akshay Kumar in the film. Reflecting on their connection, Veer said, “He really motivated me in my life because he also understood that sometimes, when you don’t have the courage to express what you want to be, considering how challenging this profession is.
