A source close to the film told the publication that the story demands two actresses. While Sanon plays a journalist who aspires to become a filmmaker, the character of Fernandez is still being kept a secret. The source, however, added that the actress has a significant role in taking the plot forward in the film.
According to a report in DNA, after Fernandez finishes shooting for Bachchan Pandey, she will be shooting with Nandiadwala again, alongside Salman Khan for Kick 2.
Meanwhile, a few days back, it was revealed that Arshad Warsi has joined the cast of Bachchan Pandey. This is the first time that Kumar and Warsi are teaming together for an action-comedy.
Reports said that Warsi's character is integral to the narrative and will have multiple shades.
Bachchan Pandey, being directed by Farhad Samji starts shooting in Jaisalmer on 6 January.
