Ghai said he is looking for a new actor to portray the part as Bachchan is already committed to play the role of a lawyer in another movie. &quot;I need to clarify that Amitabh Bachchan has not signed the film. After reading the script, he suggested that he is playing a lawyer&#39;s role in some other project for which he is committed. So, we have mutually agreed not to cast him in this film,&quot; Ghai told PTI. &quot;I would love to work with a legend like him. But, now we shall announce another actor soon,&quot; he said. The film, produced by Ghai, will see newcomer Anurag Sinha playing the role of Sarabjit. Sonakshi Sinha is apparently essaying the role of Sarabjit&#39;s sister - Dalbir Kaur. The film will be directed by Ishwar Singh.u00a0
