Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is impressed
with actor Akshay Oberoi's performance in "Gurgaon", and says he shines
throughout the film.
Akshay will be seen playing the lead in "Gurgaon", a noir thriller
inspired by true events.
Directed by National Award winning cinematographer Shanker Raman, the
film tells the story of Kehri Singh, a real estate baron, who runs his
business in his daughter's name. Nikki Singh (character played by
Akshay) is the son of Kehri Singh and is often sidelined by his father
as good for nothing.
"I think Akshay is brilliant in the film. Shanker has pulled excellence
out of him and it's visible when to watch it. He shines throughout the
film," Kashyap said in a statement.
"Gurgaon" is slated to hit the screens on Friday, and will be showcased
at the MAMI special screening here on Tuesday.
Kashyap added: "He has definitely arrived with 'Gurgaon' and is someone
to watch out for."
Akshay is also doing Pia Sukanya's "Bombairiya" and a web series on the
night club life of Mumbai called "Bar Code". He will be seen in
"Kaalakaandi", which also stars Saif Ali Khan.
