The 49-year-old actor will be playing the role of an Indian counter-terrorist cop, who teams up with Kiefer Sutherland’s Jack Bauer to take on terrorists.
"Anil would play Jack Bauer’s counterpart in India," the Daily Star quoted a source as telling National Enquirer.
"It’s not known yet whether Anil will appear in just one episode of whether he’ll be a recurring character.
"Either way the producers are very excited about having him onboard," the source added.
