Kunal Kapoor's love
affair with Shakespeare seems set to continue. After a total body
transformation to play the anti hero Macbeth in the trilingual Veeram, Kunal is
all set to visit the world of Shakespeare again, but albeit with a completely
contrasting character. The new role has him playing a drama teacher, teaching
Shakespeare, in debutant director Vandana Kataria's 'The Noblemen'
Talking about the film
the actor says "I have had the opportunity to play such varied characters
in the last year. This again, is very different from anything I have done before.
The character is rebellious, and his teaching methods unique and
unconventional. I connected deeply with that rebellion. With the need to break
stereotypical ideas about how things should be done"
Ask him about what draws
so many actors to Shakespeare, the actor says "The range of Shakespeare's
characters is just enormous. Each character, whether it's a man or woman,
prince or pauper, hero or anti hero, is so complex, layered and yet deeply
identifiable. And his stories are timeless. Audiences, actors and readers
across generations can relate to them. In Fact the first play I was ever part
of, was Hamlet"
The unit recently wrapped
the film after a month long schedule in Mussoorie, followed by a shoot in
Mumbai. The film is produced by Saregama, Shivani Saran and well-known casting
director Seher Latif.
