Kapil Sharma Is All Set To Play The Role Of A Food-Delivery Boy In Nandita Das's Next Movie
Bollywood's ace comedian Kapil Sharma needs no introduction… He is all famous and also makes us go ROFL with his humour shows. Off late, he is concentrating on movies and bagged an offer in ace filmmaker Nandita Das's movie. According to the sources, he will portray the role of a food delivery boy in this movie while Shahana Goswami will essay the role of his wife. The shooting of this movie will begin soon and will be shot in Bhubaneswar, Odisha.
Off late, the entire team of the movie spoke to the media and doled out the details of the movie. Writer-Director-Producer-Actor Nandita Das said, "The film attempts to make visible what's hidden in plain sight. And for this, the cast and crew has serendipitously come together. One day, Kapil Sharma popped up on my screen! I hadn't seen his show, but I could see him wholly representing the 'common man', despite not being one anymore! I am certain he will surprise everyone, including himself, with his natural candidness. I am looking forward to working again with Shahana, an amazing actor and person. And in Sameer (Nair), I have found a true producing partner."
On the other hand, Sameer Nair, CEO of Applause Entertainment said, "Nandita first narrated this idea to us as a short. We loved it so much that we actively encouraged her to expand it into a full feature. And we are elated to say that the idea is blossoming into a wonderful film that captures the lives of the invisible, 'ordinary' people who actually keep this country and our economy running. When we see our protagonist struggling in an indifferent digital order, what we witness is man versus machine, but with an immensely humane perspective. We are mighty excited to see Kapil and Shahana in an entirely new light under Nandita's able direction.
Well, Kapil also spoke to the media and is all excited about the project… "I am very excited about this project, not because I am doing a film, but because I am doing Nandita Das' film, whom I have seen both as an actor and a director. She has a very distinct and deep way of looking at things and a keen eye for detailing. So my job as an actor is to just do what she tells me. Her work is very different from mine, and I am happy that the audience will get to see a new side of me. An artist is always thirsty to do something different! The people behind the project, Nandita Das and Sameer Nair, are both extremely passionate and good at what they make, so I am really excited to be doing this film."
Finally, Shahana Goswami spoke and doled out, "After Firaaq, I couldn't be happier to finally be on an adventure with Nandita again. I'm excited to work with Kapil as I know he will bring a certain naturalness and ease to this character. I'm thankful to Applause for supporting and nurturing Nandita's vision and grateful to them for making me a part of this journey. I'm looking forward to this wonderful creative collaboration with so many extremely talented people in the crew, with my dear Nandita as our captain and guide."
