A  picture from the first day shoot was shared by the team. Seen in the picture are sound designer Resul Pookutty, Sanjay Gupta, Palvi Jaswal, Rakesh Roshan, Sudeep Chatterjee, Sumit Basu and Akhilendra Mishra.

The film also stars brothers Rohit Roy and Ronit Roy in negative roles. Touted to be a revenge-love story, ‘Kaabil’ will be shot in Mumbai over a four-month schedule.
