For the next one month and more, filmmaker Tigmanshu Dhulia
will completely turn into an actor. He will be shooting for two projects every
day.
"I am reviving the days of Shashi Kapoor and Govinda
who did more than one shift per day. No actor does double shifts any more. I
guess I am a unique actor in every sense," told Dhulia .
"Yes, I am completely into acting for the next one
month. Though that doesn't make me a complete actor! I'll be facing the camera
in two mediums - cinema and television for the rest of April and half of
May," he further added.
While in Nikhil Advani's film "Hero", Dhulia
plays a sympathetic character, in Endemol's soap about the ups and downs in an
influential business family; he is featured in a negative role.
"It's not a routine villain's role. I play a smooth
operator," confides the director, who tells he is nervous about the
impending screen time with Amitabh Bachchan.
"I shot with Amitabh Bachchan saab for four days. Now
I've to shoot regularly with him for a month. It isn't easy for even veteran
actors to face the camera with this legend. So you can imagine my plight,"
told the director of films like "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster", "Paan
Singh Tomar", "Saheb, Biwi Aur Gangster Returns".
No direction for Dhulia
until the end of May.
"I start directing 'Yaara' from from June. The main
cast is in place now," told Dhulia .
For a while, it seemed Irrfan Khan would not have the dates
for "Yaara".
"But we've managed to accommodate one another," told
Dhulia .
