Well, while it is very obvious that he had to be mentioned in this list, we are in awe of his transformation, and that needs extra credit. There are scenes in the trailer where Farhan weighs on the larger side of the ideal weight. He has a tummy, a full face. And within a blink of an eye, you see him flaunting his chilled abs. The actor has worked on his character, and within a duration of two minutes, you get to see a glimpse of it.

Thakur was seen in Super 30 before this, and honestly seeing her back on the screen is a delight. The chemistry between the two is refreshing and delightful. Rawal adds the spice to the story. He essays he role of a strict coach, who changes Akhtar’s life. We cannot wait to see the three together on the sceen.
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Magic
