In an interview with DNA, Saurav spoke about his character in ‘Brahmastra’.

I have action scenes with Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt in the film.”

When asked about his experience working with the big stars of Bollywood, Saurav said that Ranbir is ‘very good-natured’. “He (Ranbir) keeps asking me who is helping me train and how I do my moves or how wrestlers like Undertaker did their moves,” he shared.

The actor also shared his experience when he had to punch Amitabh Bachchan for a scene. “I have been very fortunate to work with Mr. Bachchan. However, in my first scene with him, I had to punch him. I was a little nervous. Then he said to me- you are a real wrestler, please don’t break my nose. I got very nervous after that.”
