He is also a Sikh, so I didn't cut my hair, not just my beard, but anywhere on that body so I could get in the skin with him. Monobrow that we see on character is real, I used to put mustard oil all over my body and get a tanned complexion by soaking in natural sunlight, which gives my character that rusty complexion as he is from a village in Punjab.

We had to wear makeup too so I couldn't get too tanned naturally. Rest, whenever performing or preparing for a role, I try to be in the moment and put myself in that circumstance.”

Sahil shares his experiences of working with Janhvi Kapoor, “She is such a sweetheart, so sweet and warm. There was so much I learned from her.

It used to motivate me to work even harder because she is my age, and I remember she moved between cities as she promoted her other films while we were filming for Good Luck Jerry.”

Sahil adds, “Mr Mukesh Chhabra has given me immense support. He was the one who cast me in Good Luck Jerry and continues to approach me for the roles and for all the projects that I am part of. In addition, Aanand L Rai Sir cast me in Raksha Bandhan, after watching my audition tape and work in Good Luck Jerry, since he is producing both the films.

Sahil was also nominated for the Best Actor award for his role in short film Gair at the Kashish Queer Film Festival, Mumbai. His new short film Birha is selected at the Hollywood Shorts Fest 2022.
