Emraan Hashmi INTERVIEW on ‘Tiger 3’ success, ‘Pathaan’ Shah Rukh Khan cameo, quitting acting
Talking about his character in Tiger 3, Emraan had recently said that it allowed him to explore a darker side to the portrayal on screen. “I found his origin story very interesting, there’s a humane side to his past. What makes him such a dreaded character formed the bedrock of my performance with regards to this character,” he told IANS.
The part demanded a certain physical transformation for him as an actor. “I was very thin actually when I signed the film. Although it didn’t involve any money shots of abs and t-shirts coming off, as there are in action films, I wanted to have a certain frame to do justice to the character that was written on paper. Another thing is the look of this character, the grey beard and the hair is also something that took us a long time to arrive at, and also his language and diction, he speaks a very polished Urdu so all the ‘Nuqtas’ had to be in the right place,” he concluded.
Alia, on the other hand, will start shooting for her upcoming action film Jigra and it will be released on September 27, 2024.
