Bharat will be showcasing the beautiful bond shared by a father and son, that is the reason being described by director Zafar to rope in Jackie Shroff to play Salman Khan’s father in the film. While talking to an Indian publication the film director told, “We met Jaggu da (Jackie Shroff) in London and discussed his dates and looks. I have wanted to work with him for a long time as I feel he is the perfect amalgamation of a star and actor. I was very glad as Jackie sir instantly agreed with the story to do the film in just 20 mins of narration.”
