Cherry vacillated on Zanjeer for 4 months
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,May 29 2012]
Ram Charan did not latch on to Apoorva Lakia's idea of Zanjeer immediately when he was offered the role of Inspector Vijay. He had his reservations and dilly-dallied on the idea for four months. And then when he felt that not only is the film very popular but also that he can work well under pressure, he did not look back.
As stated to a national daily, the reason why he chose to act in Zanjeer was because the hero is a cop in this story-based film. This is the first time that he is playing a cop in his 4-year-old career. Cherry is dubbing for himself in the film. Before going on the floors, he was not very confident about whether he had his Hindi right. Not after the first schedule, which was wrapped up recently. He admittedly feels that his Hindi is not as bad as I thought.
The actor was not enthusiastic about debuting in Bollywood even when the makers of Zanjeer came knocking on his doors. But once he decided to take up the challenge, he did not entertain any delusion that the film is different just because it is being made in Bollywood. It is like any other film for me, he quips.
