A source close to the film revealed to the publication, “If you heard the late actor Girish Karnad say, ‘yeh kaam sirf ek admi kar sakta hai, Tiger (Only one man can do this task, Tiger)’ it’s time to be introduced to the toughest and the only person who can play a nemesis to Tiger – Pakistani agent, Emraan Hashmi.” The insider added, “Emraan’s character is said to be street smart and badass, with all traits that a suave agent commands, who gets into an ideological battle with Tiger. His look is also far off from the negative leads we have seen. It’s as stylish as it gets.”
