Production :
Pre-Production :
The director, Anthony D’Souza, and the script writers during the scripting stages were searching for a magnanimous character who could do justice to the role of Akshay Kumar – Boss in the film – who is portrayed as a gangster who is ever-ready to help the needy and a larger-than-life character. They chose veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan as the narrator who would introduce Boss.
According to reports Amitabh Bachchan was sent the script in advance and journalist-turned-producer Ashwin Varde (for whom the film marks his first project as a producer) offered Amitabh the role personally over a phone call which he readily accepted. Amitabh, in spite of his busy schedule, completed the dubbing session at the earliest, on 31 August 2013 at 8:30 pm IST in Juhu’s BR Dubbing Theater in 30 minutes. To the crew’s pleasant surprise he improvised his lines as well.
Casting :
Akshay Kumar played a kind-hearted Haryanvi hero, known as ‘Boss’, and Mithun Chakraborty enacted the role of his father. Shiv Panditt portrayed Akshay Kumar’s younger brother’s role and Aditi Rao Hydari is paired with him. Danny Denzongpa played Boss’s mentor and Ronit Roy played a ruthless police officer who is pitted against Akshay.
Ronit Roy plays the role of a police officer up against the titular character, Boss, marking the first instance where he is the antagonist of a film. It is also the second consecutive instance where his role is that of a police officer, with Shootout at Wadala being the last one, in which he played Inspector Raja Ambat, based on real-life encounter specialist Raja Tambat.
Ronit Roy and Akshay Kumar have an action sequence at the climax of the film, one its highlights, shot in temperatures exceeding 47 degrees Celsius in Thailand and involving high-octane stunts that both actors performed successfully.
