Last year, Zorawar found himself in the thick of a controversy after his estranged wife, Akanksha Sharma, levelled domestic abuse charges against the Singhs on an episode of 'Bigg Boss 10'.
Counter allegations followed and the matter hit headlines until eventually fading out. According to Akanksha, Zorawar "does nothing" for a living, but given his good looks, sources say, Yuvraj Singh felt he could give a shot at acting.
"Zorawar has been asked to lose weight as soon as possible. But otherwise, the producers have agreed to all of Yuvraj's terms and conditions. Hunt for the leading lady and rest of the cast is underway. Once the main cast is ready, an announcement will be made," adds the insider.
