Gaurav Chopra : My effort is to give you a different version of me every time!

CineBuster Online | Updated — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 12:32:55 +0000

Gaurav Chopra has been around the entertainment industry for more than two decades and still going strong. He has been choosy in selecting roles so that he isn’t seen in a mediocre character. Having started on the small screen, Gaurav successfully transitioned to films and has been doing meaty roles. In his early days he started out with a Tamil film Ottran and later did the television serials, ‘#SaaraAkaash’ and ‘#KarmaKoiAaRahaaHaiWaqtBadalney’. He shot to fame with the Hindi serial ‘#Uttaran’. He also has acted in an #Americanfilm, ‘#BloodDiamond’ and has participated in the Georgian edition of the international dance reality show ‘#DancingWithTheStars’ where he was chosen as a cultural ambassador.

#GauravChopra has an impressive filmography. He was part of serials like ‘#Lavanya’, ‘#VikraalAurGabraal’, ‘#PiyaKaGhar’, ‘#LeftRightLeft’, ‘#GharKiLakshmiBetiyann’, ‘#Aghori’, ‘#Sanjivani’ etc. He did films like ‘Men Will Be Men’, ‘#BachchanPandey’, ‘#Gadar2’, ‘#Lakeerein’ etc and was part of web series ‘#Fourplay’, ‘#HelloMini’, ‘#RamaNaidu’ etc. In a recent blockbuster movie ‘Gadar 2’, his role of Lieutenant Colonel Devendra Rawat was highly appreciated. He had to gain substantial weight for the role and as a prep he lived with real-life army. His last release ‘Lakeerein’ received critics’ approval. Our Sr Editor Keerti Kadam interacted with Gaurav Chopra. Excerpts…

At the beginning of your career you had the chance to act along with superstar Rajnikant and now Sunny Deol. What do you think when you look back at your journey as an actor have you improved over the years?
I hope I’ve improved. I hope I’m a better human being. When you grow you should be a better actor, a better human being and it goes hand in hand. I think, if you are not a better human being, you can’t be a good actor. For imaginary characters you have to be observant enough, sensitive enough towards other people and then portray it sincerely on screen or else it will look fake.

Your last film, Lakeerein started a conversation around marital rape. What are your views on that?
We are living in times when women pick this up really quickly these days. The empowered women make it a point that they want to talk about the underprivileged women. I think that will be the first reaction. I’m not saying this as a man but I’m saying this as an observer. I think that men and the right kind of men also support these kinds of sentiments, which is why there has been a change in the society. Not as much as we would like but whatever has happened, has happened because the right thinking men have also always supported. It is not a man thing or a woman thing. This film speaks about the rights of married women and their consent during a physical act.

Talking further about marital rape, it shouldn’t happen. This is an evil in the society. It should not be happening. In a marriage you should be making love and not having sex. There would be days when you passionately make love but it’s still making love. The point that one person is getting some gratification out of it and the other person hates it to the point of calling it a rape. Then, according to me, the marriage is already over. If there is marital rape then the marriage is over.

Generally you seem to be choosy. What made you say yes to ‘Lakeerein’?
I was first called by Dilip Shukla Saab, the legendary writer of movies like ‘Damini’, ‘Dabangg’ etc.. He’s known for writing layered characters, mazedaar characters. He makes them enjoyable to watch. The guy who had called me for narration had given me a very simplistic brief saying, ‘Sir aisa ek role hai, aap hamare film ke Hero hai.’ I went there and on hearing the lines and scenes from him, I understood that it was way more layered and how Vivek Agnihotri, my character’s name, is such a good representation of the Indian men who are somewhere in the midst of this change, he thinks he has evolved. He thinks he has accepted all of these changes in society. But, somewhere is still caught up with the old concepts and he still accepts some things from his wife and the marriage. And it’s not a good or a bad role, it’s just a complex part because the topic itself is complex. So I think Vivek represents the milieu, the country and also is the protagonist of the story.

Do you think Vivek is a male chauvinist pig?
I don’t think anybody is a male chauvinist pig. I think you are just a chauvinist if you are. There is good and bad chauvinism. I hate terminologies because they generalize and put everybody in one bracket. I try very hard and we’re trying very hard that women and human beings should not be put in a bracket. We shouldn’t do that with men either. Vivek is not the kind of chauvinist that you like but there are things about him that you will like. There are things about him that are attractive. I will not be surprised if there are some people who will actually like bits of him because, he has been constructed like that. He is as complex as life is. He, of course represents one side, one extreme of this spectrum but he’s as complex as life is how all of us are good and bad. We’re heroes one day and villains the other day. And that’s what Vivek is. So, in a way, he is the Hero and Villain, both, of the film.

Did you have any reference points while portraying the character?
No No, like I said the gentlemen who had called me for the role had given me one reference point which was very simplistic. This is not something like that at all. Vivek is somebody that I have completely sort of imagined and portrayed. But I’ve imagined and portrayed him in a sense of how it could be. He wants to get married to a cow (docile woman). But that is the sentiment of so many people. I had improvised a line which says, ‘Main apni zindagi mein saralta chahta hu toh gaay se shadi karna chahta hu’. Now, you do bring these little points to your role when you are playing him like a human being and not a caricature of a human being.

Any preparations you’ve done for this role?
Preparation was a little difficult as I was simultaneously shooting for ‘Sanjivani’ at that point of time. And both the characters are bang opposite. In ‘Sanjivani’ I was/am literally the best husband in the world. I was shooting during the day, flying to shoot the film all night and then fly back and shoot for serial. So, there were no sleep days for me and within 24 hours I was playing both the extremes. But it was fun doing it.

You have been directed by several directors. How was the experience working with ‘Lakeerein’ director Durgesh Pathak?
He is sincere. He does his homework. He means what he’s showing on screen. He deals with the subject sensitively and objectively at the same time. He allows you to blossom. Understanding the absolute crucial point of the complexity of the scene. So in improvisation you cannot ruin the complexity of the scene. It still has to work for the strong subject that is being made and yet as a performer he would give you the freedom to add your lines. As he knows with this line the scene will enhance. But he’ll stop you at a point where he feels necessary.

You received appreciation for your role in ‘Gadar 2’…
Yes. I have won an award for ‘Gadar 2’.

How was your experience co-acting with Sunny Deol?
It was Sunny Sir’s idea that I should play a villain in the film. We were so free with each other that we were discussing what the climax should be and ideally Tara Singh should kill the villain. But, it was his opinion first and that’s how it happened. And of course he is a legend and an extremely cooperative co-star.

What do you think about your potential being utilised on small or large screen?
More on television. People underestimate television. For an actor and writer in television, there is immense potential to discover layers in the character and play it and become the person. You literally become the character. People’s assumption about television is regressive stories, family drama, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law’s discussion. I have never done these type of shows on television. My television has always been different.

Define any difference in projecting yourself in web-series and films? Which medium do you prefer?
Fortunately I don’t find anything different. I do what I do everywhere. Unfortunately there is a difference in the way people perceive. So films are perceived in a different way. I am up for all kinds of roles if I like the story.

Will you continue to work on Television?
Well television continues to offer me roles which by itself is a good sign that they still think I’m available for them. It just so happens that television requires a lot more time. You can’t be doing anything else. If you’re playing a lead character on a TV show that’s what your life will be. No two things can happen together. With many scripts in hand it is a little difficult but, if something interesting comes my way, I shall do it.

Reason your films are very far and few between?
I’m just trying to do different things. I’m trying to do stuff that people haven’t seen me do which is difficult. People don’t cast me for Gaurav. People cast me for the perception about Gaurav. So, I could be a good actor but my perception might be different. So, your perception is as big or as small as your last project. After doing ‘Gadar 2’ I was offered 3 army officer roles. Because that’s how people see. Your effort is to try and do different things; the rest is in people’s hands.

What is the secret of your fitness? You’ve been the same for so many years now.
Miracle! The size of the jeans I wore at age 14, I still wear the same. The reason is not that I am an actor but I am boring. ‘Main ghar ka khana roz kha sakta hu’. I don’t mind not eating anything. I don’t smoke. I don’t drink. I believe whatever that you do if you’re consistent with it that remains permanent.

Which are your forth coming projects?
There are actually 6 scripts in my hand now. But of course there will be one at a time. My next upcoming film is a biopic after that, a thriller. So, the effort is to give you a different version of me every time. In some I might get appreciation, in some I might not. But, the constant effort is to try and do all kinds of cinema big, small, relevant, entertaining. You shouldn’t be typecast. I was typecast for a long time in my life. I don’t want to be typecast anymore. Also there’s something coming on OTT. It’s a thriller. My priority is a biopic as it has a Haryanvi character and I have to get into the physicality of it which means I will put on 7-8 Kgs of weight to look like a Jaat.

Review : Masala Entertainer : Bachchan Pandey!

CineBuster Online | Updated — Fri, 18 Mar 2022 12:26:37 +0000

In the wake of remakes comes #BachchanPandey which is a remake of a Tamil film ‘#Jigarthanda’ (2014) which in turn was inspired by a Korean movie ‘#ADirtyCarnival’ (2006). This #AkshayKumar and #KritiSanon starrer is an out and out masala entertainer. In fact the title ‘Bachchan Pandey’ was introduced as Akshay’s character in ‘Tashan’ which was liked by the viewers. Here Akshay takes full fledge charge of that character and plays this grey shaded character in an convincing manner. In recent times there has been an increase in biopics. Bachchan Pandey treads that path as the film is on a Biopic film on Bachchan Pandey who is a dreaded criminal in the northern India.

Myra Divekar (Kriti Sanon) is an assistant director who is thrown out of film set by the director of the film for taking reins in her hands. She has the support of the producer and she zeroes in on a script of a dreaded criminal Bachchan Pandey. Bachchan Pandey is a remorseless and cruel gangster who kills even police officers and journalists. No one dare arrest him as he is the most dreaded criminal stationed in Baagwa, a sleepy town in Uttar Pradesh. His cronies include Kandi (Saharsh Kumar Shukla), Bufferiya Chacha (Sanjay Mishra), Pendulum (Abhimanyu Singh) and Virgin Bhai (Prateik Babbar). Bachchan Pandey wants to instil fear in everyone around him so that his ‘business’ keeps flourishing.

In the meanwhile Myra reaches Baagwa and meets her childhood friend Vishu Mhatre (Arshad Warsi) who agrees to help her make this film. They try to extract as much information as possible about him including his love life. It is understood that Bachchan Pandey had killed his girlfriend Sophie (Jacqueline Fernandez) in cold blood. While collecting information on Bachchan Pandey they get caught and come face to face with this dreaded criminal. He thinks that they are planted by police but when he finds out the real reason he decided to cooperate with them. He even plays the lead i.e. himself in the movie. What happens later and in between is the story of Bachchan Pandey.

The plot is interesting but the screenplay doesn’t live up to it’s potential. The director Farhad Samji concentrates more on action. In fact comedy is his forte and that peeps in between. The movie neither is an all out action film nor a comedy. But the mixture of these two genres make the film from being a disaster. In fact director had a bunch of artistes like Arshad Warsi, Sanjay Mishra, Pankaj Tripathi and of course Akshay Kumar at his disposal but their comic veins are not cashed. Apart from Akshay all these artistes’ roles are half baked which mars the entertainment quotient of the film. The director’s bid to justify Bachchan Pandey becoming the good soul, Bhola Pandey, makes the film lose focus. Music is passable as none of the songs are remembered after exiting the cinema hall. The production values are of high quality and the well choreographed action sequences with intermittent one-liners make the film watchable.

Akshay Kumar has done a great job but his good work doesn’t help the film. His action and comic timing entertains but the screenplay and the length (152 Min) fail him. He lives up to his larger than life character’s description – iski aankh aur dil, dono pathhar ka hai. Kriti Sanon shines in a feisty filmmaker’s role. She not only looks beautiful but delivers a very convincing performance. She is the highlight of the movie despite the title being Bachchan Pandey. Arshad Warsi does justice to his role with a few witty one-liners but viewers will feel that his potential is not fully used. Jacqueline Fernandez is passable, so is Pratiek Babbar. Others lend good support.

Bachchan Pandey is a masala entertainer which’ll please Akshay Kumars fans who love action and comedy.

Abhimanyu Singh enjoys portraying ‘Comic-Baddie’!

CineBuster Online | Updated — Wed, 16 Mar 2022 19:18:38 +0000

#AbhimanyuSingh who can distract people from his humorous evilness in #AkshayKumar starrer #BachchanPandey, plays a new version of #Bollywood baddie. Talking about his role, the actor reveals that he was waiting for a role like this and that the audience will get to see him in a completely different avatar “I can’t divulge anything about my character at this point in time as the film is yet to release, but I can tell you that you will enjoy every bit of it. I was waiting for something like this, and when it came, I grabbed it. I always believe in going with the flow, so whenever roles come to me, I choose the best out of them and move ahead,”

Sharing his experience of working with Akshay once again, Abhimanyu gushes, “It’s always fun to work with him. He makes you feel very comfortable. He stays grounded all the time, so you always feel better. I worked out in the gym with him almost every second day. We were shooting in Jaisalmer together for about 50 days. Akshay is always ready to help you on the set and off the set. He also gives you the right advice at the right time. Also, his one-liners are so funny most of the time that you can never forget.”

After playing back-to-back negative roles, the actor shares his views on getting typecast, “I have never been afraid of getting typecast as I perform every role differently, be it negative or positive. It doesn’t really matter to me. Now you will see me in positive leads and in comical roles as well in coming times.”

Bachchan Pandey is directed by Farhad Samji and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala starring Jacqueline Fernandez, Kriti Sanon, Arshad Warsi releasing on 18th March, 2022

Akshay Kumar gets nostalgic as he talks about his father’s love for his son’s films in TKSS!

CineBuster Online | Updated — Sat, 12 Mar 2022 14:03:06 +0000

#AkshayKumar, the action superstar of Bollywood, graced the sets of #SonyEntertainmentTelevision’s number one comedy show #TheKapilSharmaShow with his co-stars #ArshadWarsi, #JacquelineFernandez, #KritiSanon and director #FarhadSamji to promote their new and upcoming film ‘#BachchanPandey’! The actor may as well have fans all over the globe, but his number one fan is no other than his own father! On the show, the celebrated icon spoke about how parents can do anything to support their children and recounted a tale of his late father, who would diligently watch all of his son’s films, many times!

Host Kapil Sharma asked Kriti Sanon about her mother who is known to fight for her daughter when it comes to internet trolls. The actress said that her mother is the most honest and unfiltered person that she knows of. On this note, Akshay Kumar also spoke about his father, who would support him through thick and thin, “Parents are like that only and I believe they should be like that! Whenever my films would be release, my father would see the film at least 14 to 15 times. Then sometimes, he used to randomly ask his friend, “Aur, Kya kar raha hein?.. koi nai? Chal aa picture dekhta hein.” He would himself buy the tickets, have snacks during the intervals and while watching the film, he would tap his friend’s shoulder and say, “that’s my son”. So, that’s what daddies and mummies are like and so, this is not astonishing that Kriti’s mother fights for her. All mothers are like that.”

Tune into The Kapil Sharma Show, this Sunday at 9:30 pm on Sony Entertainment Television.

Jacqueline Fernandez and Akshay Kumar have similar habits, find out which?

CineBuster Online | Updated — Sat, 27 Feb 2021 16:10:44 +0000

The gorgeous Jacqueline Fernandez is busy shooting for her upcoming film, Bachchan Pandey, opposite Akshay Kumar. The actress who has previously worked with Akshay in films like Housefull 2, Housefull 3 and Brothers shares a lot in common with the superstar. One of the things they totally bond over is the fact that both Akshay and Jacqueline are early risers. The co-stars love their mornings and are absolutely kicked about their morning routines.

Shares a source close to the production, “Both Jacqueline and Akshay have similar habits when it comes to their fitness and morning routines. Jacqueline too, like Akshay, is an early riser. She starts off her day with yoga and her dedicated fitness regime. There are days when the actress zooms off to the race course for horse riding at the break of dawn. On other days, she loves her coffee and reading scripts during those early hours.”

The source further adds, “Akshay is known to start his shoots as early as 5 am to 7 am. That seems gruesome to some co-stars, especially the female co-stars, given the time they need to get ready before their shots. But that is not at all a worry for Jacqueline who enjoys early morning shoots. A shot of coffee and some yoga is all she needs to be up and about!”

Jacqueline is self disciplined, just like her Bachchan Pandey co-star, Akshay. Even on days she’s not shooting, Jackie wakes up early and spends her mornings reading, making notes and to-do-lists.

With a hectic routine that Jacqueline has, it becomes very important to maintain an order in one’s daily life. She has been shooting for the horror comedy, Bhoot Police, alongside Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Kapoor and Yami Gautam. Then she got on to Rohit Shetty’s comedy of errors, Cirkus, which pairs her with Ranveer Singh for the first time. Then of course, there is Bachchan Pandey opposite Akshay. The two shot in Jaisalmer recently for the film.

With an impressive line up like that, it becomes important for an actress to maintain a healthy regime and who better than Jacqueline, who’s embracing her age so beautifully, to know that. Afterall, she’s worked closely with the fitness guru, Akshay Kumar so sharing similar habits is only natural for these two co-stars.

Jacqueline Fernandez gorges on Rajasthani Special Thali

CineBuster Online | Updated — Thu, 18 Feb 2021 20:02:42 +0000

A true blue desi at heart, Jacqueline displays her love for local Indian food in Jaisalmer as she explores Rajasthani food while shooting in Jaisalmer for ‘Bachchan Pandey’.

The beautiful Jacqueline Fernandez made it a point to explore the local cuisine while shooting in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan for her upcoming film, Bachchan Pandey. She is a big fan of desi Indian cuisine and doesn’t miss a chance to try out the local fare, from wherever she’s travelling across the length and breath of the country. She truly rocks the lunch scenes during her outdoor schedules in India.

The actress, although from Sri Lanka, is a die-hard fan of Indian cuisine. Shares a source from the set, “Jacqueline is a total foodie and in that sense, absolutely desi at heart. She loves to explore local Indian food so much that whenever and wherever she travels in India, she makes sure she tries out the local cuisine of the place. She does her own research and figures out the traditional local items and relishes them to the hilt.”

Jacqueline, who owns restaurants her self has a keen interest in the culinary world and never fails to try and appreciate Indian food. Even when she was busy with a hectic schedule on the sets of Bachchan Pandey, she took time out for her gastronomical adventures and explored the local cuisine.

Jacqueline had paid a visit to The Golden Temple during the promotions of A Flying Jatt. When in Amritsar, she enjoyed the local street food and the traditional items there.

The actress is connected with Indian culture and traditions so deeply that she’s seen celebrating almost all the Indian festivals in great pomp and grandeur. Be it Holi, Eid or Diwali, Jackie’s spirits are always high.

It’s interesting to see someone like Jacqueline, who isn’t born or brought up in this country, adapt and embrace the Indian culture so beautifully, making it a part of her own lifestyle.

No doubt then, that Jacqueline Fernandez is a complete desi girl at heart!

On the work front, Jacqueline will be next seen in ‘Kick 2’ co-starring Salman Khan, ‘Bhoot Police’, Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus and Bachchan Pandey in the pipeline.
