Abhimanyu Singh: It's big deal to play the antagonist
Mumbai, March 15 (IANS) Actor Abhimanyu Singh says playing the antagonist is a big deal. ## Abhimanyu is playing a menacing villain called Shaukeen in a web-series called "Bhaukaal" and principal antagonist in filmmaker Rohit Shetty's upcoming film "Sooryavanshi" starring Akshay Kumar. ## "My character is brutal. Calling him a villain will be an understatement. The villain in Bhaukaal is as important and as powerful as the hero. The dialogues are hard. His one-liners are the soul of the web series. The vindictiveness of my character is certainly scaring the audience," Abhimanyu said. ## "Looks like people are loving the dialogues, they are all over social media. I am happy that people are Shaukeen's Shaukeen," he added. ## In the 10 episodes web series, Abhimanyu Singh makes a lasting impact as the menacing villain and adds venom to his cruel character. His role as a villain looks barbaric and spiteful as the insensitive killer. "Bhaukaal" is a crime drama inspired by the true-life events of an IPS officer. ## Directed by Jatin Wagle, this web series on MX Player is produced by Harman Baweja and Vicky Baweja of Baweja Movies and Applause Entertainment. ## Ever since the launch of the trailer, Abhimanyu's character has made a mark and built curiosity among his fans. ## He talks about how his character is not a typical baddie in the film despite being part of a larger-than-life Shetty's cop universe: "It is a big deal to play the antagonist." ## For more and the latest news about Bollywood, stay tuned to us.
