Pinkvilla revealed about Disha Patani being a part of the project, and now the director Ali Abbas Zafar has confirmed the news while interacting with Indian Express, "I’m happy to welcome Disha on board. She is a promising star. For Bharat, we needed someone who was very athletic and yet possessed a kind of vulnerable beauty and Disha perfectly fit the bill.

Disha is happy to be a part of Salman Khan starrer and shares her excitement, she states; "I am very excited to be a part of Bharat. It is like a dream come true to get an opportunity to work with Salman sir. I cannot wait to begin my journey with the entire Bharat team, Atul sir and Ali Abbas sir, whose work I have been a big fan of."
