Anil was interacting with the media at the premiere of Selection Day along with Kabir Khan, Akshay Oberoi, Sanya Malhotra, Rhea Kapoor, Samir Kochhar, Fatima Sana Sheikh, Farah Khan, Pawan Malhotra, Dalip Tahil, Rajesh Tailang, Yash Dholye and Mohammad Samad on Tuesday.
On the basic premise of "Selection Day", Anil said: "Cricket is in the backdrop of this show, but overall it is a coming-of-age story about two brothers and the beautiful bonding between the two. I can say that it's about the dream of father and his kids. "There are some parents who want to fulfil their own dreams through their children and there are kids who don't want to listen to their father when it comes to choosing a career. So, all these things are there in this show."
He said he was not nervous, but a "bit anxious" ahead of the show's launch.
"I have made films on many stories over the years but this project was like a cricket match which we felt that we have won quickly. This show is a complete example of team work similarly like cricket matches," he said.
