"It Is Not In The Muscles": Pratik Gandhi To NDTV On Breaking Cop Stereotypes In Ghamasaan · NDTV

Ghamasaan is a film about a police officer named Aditya and a dacoit named Maharaj.

Pratik Gandhi plays Aditya, while Arshad Warsi plays Maharaj.

Aditya is not shown as a superhero who solves everything with fighting.

Instead, he must use his thoughts and face difficult personal choices.

He discovers that the system he works for may have helped create the problem he is fighting.

A village child affected by the dacoits makes Aditya take the mission personally.

Gandhi said he prepared mainly by carefully reading the script.

He and Warsi became friendly while filming, even though they never appear together on screen.

The film is scheduled to release on ZEE5 tomorrow.

Quotes

Pratik Gandhi

Actor portraying IPS officer Aditya in Ghamasaan

“Because that system has created the dacoit. The system is using him. So, being in the system, how to fight and navigate his way out of it is something very interesting that has been written for this character.”

“The way he shapes courage, it is not in the muscles. It is not in the physical aspect of the character. It is more internal, and it is more in his thoughts and actions.”
