About Bandar
Speaking about the film, Bobby Deol said, “Every actor wants to do something, because an image is set and it gets very difficult to get out of it and we get typecast. I also went through it, but now I must say doing this film was totally out of my comfort zone. I kept my shyness aside and did this film shamelessly”.
Speaking about why Bobby Deol was the perfect choice for the role, Anurag Kashyap said, “The story is of a has-been. The actor had to be my age as my generation has not transitioned well to the social media age. Bobby understands what failure means. He has seen his career fade away and then he found his way back.
