In the glimpse into the world of Arjun, we see him as a top-tier Indian cricketer who falls out of favour with selectors after being out-of-form for a couple of years. This fuels in him a desire to make a comeback into the scheme of things, and there’s a beautiful dialogue that compares personal wins and team wins to a soldier at our country’s border. This gives us an insight into the kind of person Arjun is, and we also get to see Meera Jasmine, who plays his wife, and why she gets increasingly frustrated with her husband.

Talking about his character, Siddharth said in a statement, “Arjun’s story is one of passion and sacrifice. He’s not just playing for himself—he’s playing for the country, carrying the weight of expectations, the love for the game, and the battle between his dreams and reality. TEST is more than just a sports film; it’s about the choices that define us. I can’t wait for audiences to step into his world and witness it on Netflix.”
