Now, as per a media report, Parineeti's role in the film is just 10-minute long but is a crucial character.

Parineeti's role in the film
As per a report by Bollywood Hungama, the film is about a group of miners stuck in a mine. ''Time is running out and they need to be rescued before they perish. In such a scenario, the makers had to focus on the principal track to keep the interest and tension levels high. Hence, there’s very little focus on Parineeti Chopra’s track. Her screen time is around 10 minutes,'' the portal reported quoting a source.
Talking about the importance of Parineeti's role in Mission Raniganj, the source added, ''But hers is a crucial character. And the makers were keen to have a strong performer like Parineeti Chopra for the part. She also understood the importance of her character and willingly came on board.''
Mission Raniganj: The Great Bharat Rescue is Akshay and Parineeti's second film together after Kesari. Interestingly, in both the film Akshay played the role of sardar.
