Before approaching SRK, Kokate had worked on the actor’s look in the film . Marathi film and stage actor Ashok Shinde, who has now been signed on for the role, bears an uncanny resemblance to the politician.

Shah Rukh recently reportedly also turned down an offer from Ashutosh Gowariker, his Swades director. After the 2004 film, which flopped at the box-office, Shah Rukh has flatly refused to work with the director for his next venture.
Ashutosh offered SRK a role in a period film with Rani Mukerji as his screen partner, but after Swades, Shah Rukh isn't taking any chances.

Apparently, working with Gowariker on Swades wasn't one of the highlights of Shah Rukh's life, but Ashutosh asked him to forget the past and start afresh. Ashutosh also offered him incentives to make up for the experience. Our source said, “Ashutosh even told Shah Rukh that they could co-produce the film and he had no issues with Shah Rukh's style of working on commission basis. But even this did not evoke a favourable response.”
