The Barfi actor was quoted saying, “ I have grown up at the age of 9 and 10 with a Sanjay Dutt poster in my cupboard, then getting to play him in a biopic, and finally for him to be the merciless menace-- Shuddh Singh. What he was on camera was so ruthless, I have never gotten hit so much in my life.” He added, “It’s amazing that he is my antagonist! He hits me and I have to hit him on screen.

The director has described Baba’s Shuddh Singh in Shamshera as the 'giant of negativity,' and RK’s Balli as the 'tiny, crazy, monstrous spark of hope.'
