He noted that the film was a moving drama and he is a comedian. He is known for his humour and comic image through his TV show for the last two decades.
In conversation with IANS, he said, “I was approached by Nandita ma’am for the film and I loved the story but I was quite aware that if you’re a comedian then the audience doesn’t take you very seriously when you play a dramatic role.”
He added that he thought it would be difficult for the audience to visualise him in a serious role. He also said that his experience as a theatre actor helped him navigate through the film.
What eventually helped him navigate through this character was his background as a theatre actor. Produced by Applause Entertainment, the film is directed by Nandita Das.
