When the “Shamshera” trailer released on Friday afternoon, Ranbir Kapoor’s supporters were in for a surprise. In addition to showcasing the actor in a brand-new, rough and gruff demeanour, the trailer of the movie makes it clear that Ranbir will play two roles in this movie.
The actor spoke about his first-ever double role as a father during the trailer’s introduction and said that getting both roles required some persuasion. “I wasn’t actually provided a double role when the movie was described to me. However, as soon as I heard the narrative, I urged Aditya Chopra and Karan Malhotra to cast me as the dad as well “, he said.
The performer said, “It’s an incredible job and energising part for an entertainer to depict.I then had to make a strong case to Adi and Karan. I believe Karan conducted a few look tests after that, and that is when he, too, became persuaded.
The actor said that he found playing a dual character for the first time in his profession to be “extremely tough” but also “exciting.”
“In the first place it wasn’t presented to me, but as an actor, it really fascinated me. They were two different personas, and as an entertainer, I found it really difficult and exhilarating to represent them as two separate people, “explained Kapoor.
The events of Shamshera take place in the fictional city of Kaza, where a brutal authoritarian commander named Shudh Singh imprisons, enslaves, and tortures a warrior tribe. This is the story of a person who sold into a subjection, who later rose to leadership roles and turned into a legend among his local area. He fights constantly for the freedom and distinction of his clan.
The action-packed comedy is based in the 1800s in the centre of India. Sanjay Dutt will play the villain, Daroga Shudh Singh, in it. Vaani Kapoor is the female lead as well.
On July 22, 2022, the movie, which was helmed by Karan Malhotra, will be released in Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi.
