Casting

Speaking about playing Meher Sarabjeet Singh Gill , Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia said, “As a newcomer, it was a strong character to play, given that like every young girl Meher also has dreams about the way her life would go and she is ready to take on everybody and everything to fulfill them.”[5]

Avinesh Rekhi said, “I will be essaying the role of a politician. Sarabjit Singh Gill, who is a single parent and a loving husband. He meets Meher at a crossroad but accepts her with open arms and gives a new meaning to her life. The concept of Choti Sarrdaarni is very promising and comes with a powerful message and I am certain that the audience will love me in this new avatar.”[5]
