Seasoned actor Pankaj
Tripathi, who will be seen as Kehri Singh in noir thriller "Gurgaon",
says his attempt is always to lend a positive streak even to a negative
character that he plays.
Inspired by true events, "Gurgaon" is the directorial debut of National
Award-winning cinematographer Shanker Raman.
Pankaj will be seen as a real estate baron who runs his business Preet
Real Estate in his daughter's name. She is his lucky charm and the
apple of his eye. His oldest son, Nikki Singh, is often side-lined by
him as a brash, insolent, good-for-nothing, who only brings bad luck.
Talking about the project, Pankaj said in a statement: "'Gurgaon' is a
very special film for me. I always try to bring some kind of positivity
in every negative character I play and I've kept the same approach to
my character Kehri Singh in 'Gurgaon'.
"It was a beautiful experience to work with such great people like Ajay
Rai and Shanker Raman."
A poster with his character in focus was also launched on Saturday.
The film, also starring Akshay Oberoi and Ragini Khanna, will release
on August 4. It is produced by Ajay G. Rai and Alan McAlex of JAR
Pictures, along with Madhukar R. Musle of M.R. Filmworks, Nisha N.
Sujan of Hashtag Film Studios and Abbas Ali Rattansi.
"Gurgaon" is a cautionary tale which will remind the audience of the
famous saying, "What goes around, comes around".
Earlier, Pankaj has worked in films like "Gangs of Wasseypur",
"Agneepath", "Manjhi: The Mountain Man", "Singham Returns", "Masaan"
and will be seen in "Newton" very soon.
