The poster shared by him gives a closer look at his face as he plays the legendary coach Syed Abdul Rahim, who is widely associated with the golden era of Indian football in the 1950s. It also shows him standing in a field while facing a team of players in rain with his back to the camera. Another poster that surfaced online, shows him in a more joyful mood as he kicks a football while being dressed in formals and carrying an umbrella and a bag in his hand.
