Pooja Hegde was one of the first actors to be signed for the project and will play the leading lady in the film. The 31-year-old had debuted in Bollywood with Mohenjo Daro (2014). Another established actor who will act as a crowd-puller is Venkatesh Daggubati, who is returning to Hindi films after 25 years! His last Hindi film was Khel Khiladi Ka (1997).
Bigg Boss 13 participant and singer-actor Shehnaaz Kaur Gill is particularly close to Khan, ever since her BB days. Hence, it's unsurprising that Kaur Gill will be making her way into Bollywood with Bhaijaan. A few days ago, a few photos of the Honsla Rakh actor had also leaked from the sets, which further confirmed her casting. Her exact role is still under wraps.
Television heartthrob Siddharth Nigam shot to fame through his titular role in Chakravartin Ashoka Samrat (2015-2016) and Peshwa Bajirao (2017). He also won critical acclaim for his work in films such as Munna Michael and Dhoom 3. Confirming his role in Bhaijaan, Nigam told an entertainment portal, "Sharing screen space with Salman sir is a big opportunity and it's a special moment for me."
Apart from the aforementioned actors, Palak Tiwari will also reportedly make her debut with the Farhad Samji directorial. Moreover, dancer-actor-presenter Raghav Juyal has been roped in to play the role of Khan's younger brother. The multistarrer will further be embellished with the presence of Punjabi singer-actor Jassie Gill, who debuted in Hindi films with Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi (2018) opposite Sonakshi Sinha.
