Talking about his character Jeetendar from the film, Pahwa said in an interview, `I play the eldest brother in the family and being the eldest, I feel that it is my solemn duty to take all decisions and be the father figure to everyone else in the family. Needless to say, this causes friction between the other family members and you will get to see in the film the kind of hilarious consequences that arise as a result of the way my character behaves.`

Apart from Pahwa, 'Khajoor Pe Atke' also stars Vinay Pathak, Seema Pahwa, Dolly Ahluwalia, Sanah Kapoor, Suneeta Sengupta and others. 'Khajoor Pe Atke' is a tongue-in-cheek look at how different members of a family react when a member of the family is rushed to a hospital after falling gravely ill. This film will offer cine-goers a glimpse into the lives of the most entertaining 'Item Family' ever!
