A few months ago it was reported that Abhishek Bachchan was going to be part of the movie but it was later confirmed that Jr.Bachchan is no longer part of the movie. As per the reports, Abhishek thought that Sonu had more screen space than him which was an issue for him
“Abhishek was quite kicked about Paltan. However, he realised after a while that Sonu Sood had more screen space than him. That bothered him considerably. When he discussed his apprehensions with Dutta, he told him that while Sonu had more screen time, it was Abhishek who had a better character written for him. Dutta could not convince him and he backed out at the end minute.” said a source.
While Arjun Rampal was last seen in Daddy and Kahaani 2: Durga Rani Singh. Gurmeet has earlier worked in movies like Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laaddoo Deewana, Wajah Tum Ho and Khamoshiyan
Paltan is scheduled to release on September 7, 2018.
