Talking about how he enjoys doing action sequences, Dino says, “In the earlier phase of my career, filmmakers only perceived me as this sweet, good-looking boy next door. I was offered to play a romantic hero, but never got an opportunity to do an all-out action film. I have a knack for action as I am fit and flexible, but no one has ever tapped that part of my personality. In Agent, I will get to do some raw brutal action and I’m excited about that.”

Dino talks about the look and character in the film and says, “I play an agent who’s gone rogue. He’s quite a crazy guy, and an anti-hero. I am flaunting long hair and a beard. It has been nearly three years since I have seen my face without any facial hair. I grew my hair and beard for The Empire and haven’t cut it since then ,” he shares. So, does he enjoy playing characters with grey shades? “There’s a certain madness you can bring to a negative character and the audience loves watching that. Even as a kid, when I watched James Bond movies, I remembered the villains more than the protagonist. Look at The Dark Knight, the character of The Joker is unforgettable in that film,” he explains.

While Dino has been a part of South films like Kandukondain Kandukondain (2000), Julie (2006) and Solo (2017), with Agent, he makes his debut in Telugu cinema. “They are making fantastic movies. We all know that some of their films have been huge blockbusters. I am working with director Surender Reddy, who has already made some highly successful films. So, why not? I am an actor and I need to be seen in a different kind of cinema and the story just floored me,” he signs off.

The empire is an Indian historical fiction period drama streaming television series created by Nikkhil Advani and directed by Mitakshara Kumar was released last month on the ott platform. Dino Morea played the role of the antagonist Muhammad Shaybani Khan in the series. He was praised for his performance and received accolades from across the country for his negative role and for the savage brutality and evilness of his character.

Dino is a versatile actor and would love to do more such roles which challenge him to bring out the best.

Dino adds, “I am really grateful that I got the opportunity to play this role. I was starving for good work, and while I was saying NO to roles that wouldn’t make a difference to my carrier, I kept working on myself. So when this delicious opportunity came, I relished it, I was so ready and I gave it my all, not really thinking about what the outcome would be. I did not anticipate this kind of reaction. Now, this award & recognition just validates the years of hard work. I will continue to entertain you to the best of my ability and hopefully keep winning your hearts.

Kunal, who portrays the challenging role of Mughal Emperor Babur in ‘The Empire’ informs, “I am really overwhelmed by the kind of response that I have got since the release of ‘The Empire’. It was a beautifully written book with some fascinating characters and we have all worked very hard to make it come alive and I’m very happy people are enjoying it.’’

“This was a very complex and challenging character and it was very interesting to explore the different layers of his personality. From doubt and vulnerability to strength and ruthlessness. And I’m so happy with the way people have reacted to the performance,” the actor adds.

For Kunal, the historical drama is quite special, as it has given him the opportunity to do action, a genre that he always wanted to attempt as an actor.

We spoke to Kavish and here is what he has to say, “The process of casting for a character is like making a delicacy. One needs to know the right flavour, feel and look of the character. OTT is a space that is highly character-specific and performance-oriented as the whole world is the audience. We are watching Game of Thrones and Vikings and if we don’t live up to the bill, they will butcher the content, and rightly so. The audience is investing in us. This drives all of us to level up. The projects such as the Empire, Mumbai Diaries – 26/11 on Amazon Prime Video, Rocket Boys and Rudra are going to place us on the world map in terms of content. I loved casting for them. There were thousands and thousands of auditions and we got what we set out to find finally. We are all very happy about this and it just seems to be the beginning for On-My-Kayroll.”

It’s famously quoted that a great cast is half the battle won and we truly believe that Kavish’s work is an embodiment of that fact. We can’t wait to see what he creates next. All episodes of The Empire stream on Disney+Hotstar on 27th of August.

For Kunal, the historical drama is quite special, as it has given him the opportunity to do action, a genre that he always wanted to attempt as an actor. Sharing his experience of shooting the visual extravaganza during a live interaction with superstar Hrithik Roshan on the social media, Kunal had mentioned, “Over the years, a lot of people used to tell me that I should do action on screen but actually nobody offered me an action role. Fortunately, I got the opportunity to do action in ‘The Empire’ and it was really an incredible experience.”

“We have shot the action and war sequences in Rajasthan, with elephants, horses and thousands of people around. To be honest, I thought shooting with horses would be something I won’t enjoy but I really enjoyed horse riding. It’s very dangerous when you are doing stunts with multiple horses around and that feels very intimidating. But I actually enjoyed horse riding a lot,” adds Kunal, also known for his rich baritone.
