"Randeep Hooda has given immense dedication and hard work to his character. He is well known for his method of acting but I believe that Randeep has given his entire heart and soul for Sarbjit. The level of dedication needs immense acknowledgment," said Omung Kumar

"When Omung Kumar(director of the film) came to me with the subject, it was an immediate yes. How can we walk away from telling such a story?" Ash said at the launch of Sarbjit's trailer

Aishwarya, while shooting for a scene, had to run frantically through some lanes filled up with mud, stones and cow dung and her footwear broke. But the actress decided to shoot the scene barefoot. Her feet were bruised by the end of the shoot
