Exclusive | Suvinder Vicky recalls abusing Arjun Rampal in Dhurandhar 2: ‘Will not go to mothers, sisters’
Here's the latest update from the Bollywood world:
The audience took notice of Suvinder Vicky after he played the unforgettable character of policeman Balbir Singh in Kohrra . Since then, he has taken on some challenging character roles across films and web series. However, his recent projects, Satluj and Dhurandhar 2 , have placed him in two very different cinematic worlds, with the former facing a rollout ban and the latter emerging as a major smash hit.
Adding to this, Suvinder Vicky and Arjun Rampal in stills from Dhurandhar 2. In an exclusive conversation with Hindustan Times, Suvinder opened up about his contrasting roles, the depiction of violence on screen, and the responsibility of actors and filmmakers while portraying sensitive events.
Meanwhile, I am lucky that I got to star in both films. Even though my character was small and I had to abuse a lot in Dhurandhar 2, but people showered me with a lot of love. I never became a meme before, but after Dhurandhar, a lot of memes were made on my character, so I was on a high.
Notably, I am playing a negative character in Satluj, and I thought that after people see me in the movie, mujhe bahut galiyan padegi (Audience will abuse me), but those who have seen that era understand it.
As per the latest buzz, Many people might question why I do characters like this, but today's audience is smart, and they can differentiate between reel and real. But if actors did not play these characters as authentically as possible, many would not feel the fear of that time. Even if I talk about my kids, they don’t know what happened in 1984, and they don’t know who Jaswant Kalra was. So, maybe it is us actors and directors who are responsible for showing it as authentically as possible.
In further updates, We are hearing that the movie's pirated version is available. We don't support piracy, but a movie reaches the audience some way or the other. Definitely, if this movie was rolled out on 70 MM, the makers would have got their return on investment, and it would be nice to watch it on the big screen.
On top of that, There are films which are based on real life and then there are fictional films, but they are also inspired by what goes on in the society. Hum hi insaan hai, hum hi shaitan hai. It depends who takes what in what sense. It depends on your thinking and also it is your choice. Now we have options. Earlier, we only had theatres and Doordarshan. Now, we are moving with entertainment in our hands, if we don’t like something, we can go to something else. Also, it looks real on screen because everybody has done justice to their work in the movie.
I’m lucky to work with great directors. In this, the credit goes to Aditya Dhar and to me also because I also gave my hundred percent effort. Also, galiyon ka shrey hamare script writer ko bhi jayega (The credit for all the abusive language would also go our screenwriter), because I didn’t make any of those, that was all written in the script.
