He shared, “I used to be the first one to arrive on the set to get the prosthetics done for one character, Parmesh. So till lunch, you are doing Parmesh, after lunch, you are doing Umesh and in the evening you are doing you’re acting as Prabhakar. So there was no luxury of getting into the skin of the character.”
He further added, “There was no luxury of walking on it and remembering the arc of the character but rather every moment was very very challenging. I always say one thing you can ask the Al Pacinos of the world to come here and work and give an equally great performance that they are giving for so many years because our situation is really weak.”
