Om Puri on his role in ‘Tubelight’

Om Puri featured in Kabir Khan�۪s ��Bajrangi Bhaijaan�۪ (2015) and he also has a role in the filmmaker�۪s next ��Tubelight�۪. He spoke about his role.

Giving details, Puri told SKJ, ���In Tubelight I play a Muslim Gandhian . The film is set during the India-China war in 1963. I have a very interesting sympathetic character. If you remember I had played a sympathetic liberal Pakistani mullah in Kabir Khan�۪s Bajrangi Bhaijaan. It�۪s good to be cast in characters with unexpected shades of empathy. Kabir knows how to use actors in the best way possible�۝.

On his experience working with Salman Khan once again, Puri added, ���I had done Dabangg with him. Then we did Bajrangi Bhaijaan , now Tubelight. Salman has evolved as an actor�۝.

The film also stars Chinese actress Zhu Zhu and is slated for an Eid 2017 release.
