Speaking about The Freelancer, Anupam Kher said, ”I think working with Neeraj Pandey itself is extremely fascinating. Whenever he asks me to be a part of any of his projects, I just agree to do it blindly, but The Freelancer was a surprise to me as I did not know that the scale of this project would be so big and grand. When one hears the script, you tend to think and create a perception of how the show will be, but when I saw the footage and then the trailer, it was just phenomenal”
