We wanted a fresh face for Tabby, free from previous screen baggage. Veer resembled Devayya in personality, quiet, mysterious, and patriotic. Today, Veer is known widely as Tabby.”
He added, “Veer came through auditions. We considered many names while searching for a new face. Veer was an assistant on Bhediya. Upon meeting him, we felt he was a perfect fit for Devayya’s character.”
At times when newcomers often hesitate to pick unconventional and unpredictable roles, Veer shattered the wall and delivered a promising performance. Within his first film, he showcased an exceptional emotional graph. Be it portraying vulnerability or patriotism, Veer proved that he’s got more potential than what met the eye, and Sky Force was a perfect launchpad for him.
