Aparshakti Khurana on playing a terrorist in his next  – Bollywood News

Actor Aparshakti Khurana is largely known for his comic relief characters but in his upcoming film ‘Dhokha Round D Corner’ he will be seen portraying a terrorist. Since he is a promising yet underrated actor, this will be a good chance for Aparshakti to show his true range as a performer.

Talking about the film he recently told India Today, “With Dhokha, I am attempting a very different genre for the very first time. I have been trying to do something apart from comedy for a while now, but only Kookie Gulati and Bhushan Kumar showed that confidence in me. It explores a different take on human relationships intertwined because of personality complexes, captured with an overall theme which is slightly grungy and grey.”

He further added, “I play a Kashmiri terrorist in the film. I have tried to show a different side of myself as a performer and I hope that the audience accepts me in this new version of mine on the big screen! Really excited for this one.”

Sharing how he prepared for the part, “I hired and worked extensively to learn the Kashmiri language for my character. Also, I had lose a little weight to achieve a more lean look as the character demanded that and had to shorten my hair for the look.”
