During an interaction with media at the launch of Reebok’s fall-winter collection’18, Harshvardhan said, “From September 15, I will start preparing for my role in the film and then, we will start shooting of the film in January. Basically, Abhinav won gold at the Olympics in 10-meter air rifle event so, we have set up a shooting range and I will be shooting about five months every day with the rifle.”

“My father (Anil Kapoor) will also spend a lot of time with them (Abhinav and his father) because he plays my father in the film so, like ‘Mirziyaan’ and ‘Bhavesh Joshi The Superhero’, it will be another journey,” the actor added.

When Kapoor was asked if he would gain weight for the film, the actor stated, “No.. ‘Bindra’ film basically tracks his (Abhinav Bindra) journey from him being a 15-year-old to 35-year-old, so basically, I am playing him through two decades so, that will be reverse ageing for me.”

This will be the first time when father-son duo Harshvardhan and Anil will share screen space. Talking about their film, it is set to hit the screens sometime next year.
