But, there was a reason why Shinda Grewal couldn't do the film. Gippy said that the film was offered but his son had to cut his hair. He said, “However, the character had to cut his hair in the film. Therefore, we didn't do that film.” Ahmad Ibn Umar now plays the role of young Aamir Khan in Laal Singh Chaddha.

The actor also spoke about the film and said, “I know the story of the film as we have translated most of the dialogues in the film into Punjabi. I am expecting so much from this film.”

His son was appreciated for his role in Diljit Dosanjh, Sonam Bajwa and Shehnaaz Gill starrer Honsla Rakh. He said that the role was written keeping Shinda in mind. He said, “There was no initial plan for doing the film but since it was to be shot in Canada and the makers insisted, so we gave it a go ahead.”
