The actor is all set with his next movie ‘Once Upon a time in Mumbaai Again’.

"I based my character on the heroes of mid 1980s like Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff," he said.
Director Milan Luthria said that he added a contemporary touch to the film.
"For me it was easy to go back (in time) but I had to have a contemporary touch to it. Otherwise it would have been boring. It has to have the pace of today," he said.
