Vindu’s divine connection
Looks like Vindu Dara Singh has finally become typecast in the character of Hanuman. Right now, he is shooting for two films both of which will see him in the avatar of Hanuman. Earlier, he had essayed the same mythological character in many films and serials, but somewhere down the line he started finding it monotonous. Nevertheless, he took it up again when two filmmakers came knocking at his door.
The actor says, “I have played the character of Hanuman so many times, and every time when I think of doing it ever again, I am forced to change my mind. Now I am working down South in a film with Bala Krishna, which is being directed by Bapu. Besides that I am also playing the same character in Dharmesh Tiwari’s film, which stars Hema Malini in the lead.”
Ask him why he went back on his decision of not playing Hanuman and Vindu says, “I cannot say ‘no’ to my friends because it was they who stood by me when I was going through a rough phase. I am playing a warrior in Sunil Agnihotri’s serial Kahani Chandrakanta Ki. How can I say no if he asks me to do a Hanuman role? They are my old friends and I will do anything for them.
He is also making a serious effort to take up a variety of roles. Among his upcoming films, he will soon be seen in Shirish Kunder’s Joker. “It’s being shot in 3D in many villages of Punjab with Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha,” he says.
