He will play a rival to BarunSobti's character, Ron. 

Veteran actor Manoj Joshi will be playing a pivotal role in Barun Sobti starrer 22 Yards. The film, which will go on the floors in May in Kolkata, will see Barun playing a cricket agent. Producer Mitali Ghoshal said, "Manojji is playing a very important character. He is also playing a cricket agent, Ravi Khanna, who will be a rival to Barun's character. We have also approachedNaseeruddin Shah for a role. He is reading the script. Let's see if he can manage the dates. We are keeping our fingers crossed." 

A visibly excited Manoj Joshi saiod, "I think for the first time in India, a story will talk about the cricket industry. It's a very unique story. Cricket is seen as a religion in India, ye film uski dhajjiyan udayegi. It is a vibrant and solid subject. I am glad to be a part of it." 

Buzz is also that Barbie Handa, who is a cousin to Bolly hottie Priyanka Chopra, was approached for the female lead, but finally Delhi-based theatre actor Sukmini Lamba bagged the role.
