Speaking about the film, Kumar shared, "'Sarfira' is a film about a Sarfira insaan who dared to dream big and work for it tirelessly. I'm a firm believer that when a dream transforms into ambition, nothing can stop it from coming true and that's what I respected about Vir’s dream; it became a passion-driven cause that brought about a change for the common people."
"I like to be a part of stories that inspire and amount to a bigger picture, 'Sarfira' is one such story where I saw my inner beliefs being a part of the script," Kumar said in a statement.
