Sanjay won unanimous praise for his spine-chilling performance in Shamshera after the teaser of the film went viral! He said, “Shuddh Singh is a character you have never seen on screen. He is just pure evil. He is dangerous, he is unreliable and he can go to any extent to wreak havoc. I like this. Loved the fact that Karan Malhotra was such a villain and he thought me to play this role. He gave me all the freedom to bring Shuddh Singh to life and I hope people like my effort.”
Sanjay was thrilled to learn about the casting coup in Shamshera that pitted him against Ranbir because four years ago (Ranbir’s last film), the young actor played the role of Sanju! So, Shamshera will be Sanju vs Sanju on screen which turns out to be a much awaited on-screen clash between the two!
He adds, “It is also quite interesting that I am pitted against Ranbir, who played me in Sanju. So, his and my on-screen enmity becomes even more interesting for people. Ranbir is a brilliant actor but This film sees him with a new look. His childish charm is incomparable, but in this film, he is a man who sets his feet and looks fabulous on screen.”
After Agneepath, Sanjay is again working with director Karan Malhotra. Sanjay gave us the villain for ages as Kancha in that film and he is hoping that the audience will give him the same love as Shuddh Singh in Shamshera.
He says, “Karan always makes a bigger-than-life villain. My character in Agneepath is Kancha and now as Shuddh Singh, he knows how to present an antagonist. Personally, I hope he continues to make more exciting villains for me. He is someone who has not left the commercial sphere of Indian cinema and I am sure he has created a winner with Shamshera.”
