“Every role demands hardwork & commitment. ”- Manvir singh

December 08: Actor Manvir Singh expects his big release this week, Tusshar Kapoor starrer “Maarrich”. Manvir plays the character “Jamie”, a drug peddler in the movie. We candidly chatted with him about his role and expectations from the movie.

“Jamie is a different league character altogether. This is the first time I have played such a character, but I am confident about my work and how the movie has shaped me. Jamie is a drug peddler who’s about to face some serious flak. This character is leagues apart from anything I could imagine. Jamie peddles drugs while refusing to put any intoxicants into his own system. I had a chance to draw from my life here since I do not consume either alcohol or smoke off-screen,” he says.

“I had to learn how to make my drugs appealing. Playing a drug peddler was not an easy task. I watched world movies to find inspiration in terms of body language, dialogue delivery and behaviour patterns. I honestly feel I’ve succeeded in capturing the essence of Jamie.”

Moving along about Maarrich, Manvir says, “Due to a curious sequence of events, Jamie finds himself entangled with Tusshar Kapoor. This leads to a game of chase whose end you get to see in the theatres.”
