With 'Anubhav', Jackie Shroff looks at playing meaningful characters

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 01 2007]

Jackie Shroff, who believes in experimenting with roles, has added another feather to his cap with 'Anubhav'. The film is based on the serious issue of male exploitation, which is rarely dealt in Indian cinema. And although it is a serious theme the film is basically about how love endures in all circumstances.

In the film he plays the role of an art teacher. He will don the character called Ibrahim Vakil who is a theatre guru in the movie 'Anubhav', which was recently in news for being appreciated at Osian Cinefan film festival.

Sources say Jackie is all contended with his role in the movie as his philosophy about his acting has changed in recent times. Today he believes in doing meaningful character based roles, which add something to the movie, rather than singing and dancing around the trees.

Anubhav is being directed by National Award winning Keralaite director Rajeev Nath and is all set to release this August.
