Rajesh Kumar On Playing A Dark Character In Haddi: 'It Was Like A New Lease Of Life'
Over the years, Rajesh Kumar’s name has been synonymous with some of the most iconic characters and television shows. Akshat, the director had a clear concept in his head that because the character’s name is like Teddy Bear, his whole persona should look like you can cuddle up to him and he can become your agony aunt but at the same time, he is also a part of the negative world in a positive way. In a scene where I am brutally hitting Nawazuddin Siddiqui and punching him, you see the expression and reaction at that time is very ‘why are you making me do like this’ but ‘okay now you have asked me to do, I’ll do it.’ So that is how approach the character, rest in today’s scenario, the way we deliver our lines have become very colloquial, very conversational. The whole thought whether people will accept or won’t accept depends on if the film works or doesn’t work. And there he was like ‘Ye Tune Kya Kia Hai’, because everywhere people will talk about that.
