Talking about the look, the actor said, "The look is snazzy and it is a very contemporary look which will be relatable to all the millennials. My character is meant to be very high on fashion, wears high end branded clothes, he likes flashy cars because he is so popular. He has a fan following, he makes no bones about being the superstar of the team."
Speaking about his character, Angad said that he is "magnetic" and is passionate about his game. "He is a gregarious and magnetic character. My character Robin has the bad boy charm. He is the super star of the team. He is passionate and dedicated about his game. But he gets insecure and the consequences make him human and real. The players look up to him. He has groomed people and everyone around wants to emulate him," the star said of his character.
He also went on to say that he understands the psyche of a sportsperson and all the emotions came alive to him while playing the character. "Abhishek has given a complex behaviour pattern to explore. I love the graph of the character - glory, dejection, failure, success. He is very different from my personality and I understand the psyche of a sportsperson and all these emotions came alive to me while playing this character," he said.
