Acclaimed actor Pankaj Tripathi, who normally portrays the guy next door or essays shades of grey, is all set to play a South Indian superstar next. He says he enjoyed his makeover as a flamboyant celebrity.
Talking about his role to IANS, Pankaj described his character of Saleem as “unpredictable”.
“I am playing a clean and flamboyantly dressed superstar named Saleem, who has the superstardom of a hero. He is either unpredictable or tries to do a performance of unpredictability. He is a superstar who acts on-screen and off-screen. I had fun,” Pankaj Tripathi told IANS.
