Khalid Pervaiz was more than a friend and a brother to Sarabjit and was a major support for his sister Dalbir Kaur’s fight to free him from the Pakistani jail.  It is known that Darshan’s role in the movie would be the most challenging one he has done so far and it would also be the first time that the actor would be sharing screen space with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who is playing the role of Sarabjit’s sister, Dalbir Kaur and Randeep Hooda who’s Playing Sarabjit.

Confirming the news of signing Darshan Kumar for the role of Sarabjit’s lawyer, Director Omung Kumar says, “Darshan Kumar is a brilliant actor who gave an outstanding performance in my previous movie Mary Kom. When I started working on my second biopic ‘Sarabjit’, I was certain that I need an exceptionally good actor who would do full justice to this particular role.  I called Darshan for a narration and after hearing it; he instantly said yes and added that he  would do anything for me given the respect he has for me. This really touched my heart.”
