During the promotions of Kesari, in an interview with Tellychakkar, Sandeep Nahar had revealed that he had gained 17kgs to look like a mighty Sardar on screen. He had further added that it was a dream come true for him to work with Akshay Kumar in the 2019 film.

Speaking about Sandeep Nahar's demise, the actor had posted a video and a suicide note on his Facebook. In the now-deleted nine-minute video, Nahar had talked about the politics in Bollywood. He had also accused his wife Kanchan and mother-in-law of harassing and blackmailing. However, the actor had also added in his video that no one should be held responsible for his death.

"I would've died by suicide a long time ago but I chose to give myself the time and hope that things would get better, but they didn't. I now have nowhere to go. I don't know what awaits me after I take this step, but I've been through hell in this life. I have only one request, after I am gone, please don't say anything to Kanchan (his wife) but do get her treated," Sandeep had said in his video.
