Mirror had reported (September 5) about Siddhanth Kapoor playing Dawood Ibrahim in Apoorva Lakhia's next while sister Shraddha had been finalised for the title role of the don’s sister and underworld queen, Haseena Parkar. The actor has begun his prep for the film, spending six hours on his costumes, make-up and hair on Wednesday. He starts shooting from next week.

“My character ages from 19 to 45 so I will have several looks. I will wear a lot of pathanis and suits,” the actor told Mirror, as he's working on perfecting his Bombaiya accent.

Shraddha will join the team in early December. “We start with a song shoot in Mumbai, after which we’ll go to Bangkok, probably by this month-end, for the second schedule,” Siddhanth signs off.
