He adds that it was the character that drew him to the film, “I want to play characters that are challenging, and that push me to work harder every time. I like characters who are edgy and quirky, and Raghu is one such character”
He has an exciting slate with upcoming films including Turram Khan, Roohi Afza, a film adaptation of Arvind Adiga’s prize-winning novel The White Tiger.
