In his latest film Dhoondte Reh Jaaoge, Kunal Khemu plays a lower middle class boy whose honesty gets him into trouble. Here Kunal talks about his role in the film, his journey into Bollywood as well as an incident while shooting that left him petrified.
Tell us about your role in Dhoondte Reh Jaaoge?
Dhoondte Reh Jaaoge is a completely mad film. It’s a laughter riot from start to finish. I play a lower middle class boy called Anand Pawar. He is hard working and honest but his honesty makes his life miserable.
How often do you lie in real life?
I don’t really lie but if it were to save someone’s life then of course I wouldn’t mind. I think everybody tells a few lies. As a child, I have told many to my parents.
What memories did you take with you after shooting for the film?
Many memorable moments happen with each film you do. During the shooting of DRJ I had to do a sequence that required me to jump from a six storey building- there was no crane, no safety air bags. While doing it, it went down so fast but thankfully it stopped a little above the ground and I was safe. It was very scary.
Have you struggled like other actors to get to your position in Bollywood?
Honestly speaking, it takes a lot of struggling to make it to Bollywood. But in my case, I didn’t have to struggle too much. When my academics got over, I went to Bhatt saab and after six months I was offered Kalyug. So you can say that it was luck or destiny that gave me the chance to start so early.
Post Kalyug, you became a star overnight but your later films didn’t do well.
I don’t think that there is any existing man who can predict whether the film will be a flop or a hit after reading a script. There are many more aspects to a film which determines its success at the box office. I can only play my part the best that I can.
Before joining Bollywood, were you formally trained in acting?
No, I have not been to any acting class. Before I got into Bollywood, I used to take part in my academic cultural activities.
If not an actor, what would you have been?
Even if I hadn’t been an actor I would have been some kind of performer. I can’t see myself working in an office. I would have been a stage performer or got into theater.
What is a dream role that you would love to play?
I don’t have any kind of assumptions like that. I do whatever role I get. I work hard at it and make them into my dream roles.
You’re built like a man but have a baby face. What’s your fitness regime like?
It’s a good thing. My skin will age slower so I consider it an added benefit. I visit the gym and that is more than enough for me. I never seek out advice from skin specialists unless there really is a problem. Apart from the gym, I am useless at personal care.
