Actor Murli Sharma, who was recently seen in the much acclaimed Anurag Kashyap's 'Black Friday' as the tough cop Virender Vani, has in real life also literally gone into the case!

Post the release of the movie and the rave reviews he's been receiving, Murli has taken to reading the book for the first time surprisingly!

Generally when actors read the book first before starting the shoot as a part of their homework, Murli did not such thing, because "Anurag was so well versed and precise about what each actor was required to do that, that the need to read the book or do some homework was just not there!"

But apparently the movie has fascinated him so much now that the first thing he did was go to a book stall and pick a copy of Black Friday! Not too much of a book freak, Murli was sure he wanted to read this book at least and actually finished reading it within two days!

Well now aren't we all surprised how professional and convincing he was as the tough senior inspector in the movie, now that we know he had done no background study!!
