Suhail Nayyar to play Captain Manit Verma in ALTBalaji’s The Test Case!

Suhail Nayyar, who made a remarkable debut in Udta Punjab alongside Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, is excited to bag a pivotal role in ALTBalaji’s The Test Case.

The talented actor will be seen playing Captain Manit Verma from the Mechanized Infantry Regiment (specifically from the Brigade of the Guards) and has been a cross-country champion. Manit is flamboyant, charming and an inherent misogynist who firmly believes that women are not any good as commandos. He considers all women as objects of desire who must be pursued and won over.Suhail says, “ “I am excited about this series, especially working with Nimrat as I have been a big fan of her. She is so much fun, both, on screen and off screen. She gets a chess-board to the sets and we all play when we are not shooting. Also, the camaraderie between all the actors is amazing, it feels we belong to the same camp. I have now started working on my fitness because we will have quite an adventurous shoot in November and December. I am looking forward to it.”
