Jaideep Ahlawat in ‘Gangs Of Wasseypur’
Anurag Kashyap’s iconic two-part film, ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’, is set for a re-release on August 30. In light of this, Jaideep Ahlawat, who portrayed Shahid Khan in the film, opened up about his experience and the movie`s journey over the past decade. He described the film as his "first knock at the door of Indian cinema." The actor fondly remembers his role and is excited to see the crime thriller on the big screen once again.
Reflecting on the film`s re-release, he shared his eagerness to watch it alongside audiences, many of whom may be experiencing it for the first time in theatres. "So many people who had watched it on a laptop or hadn`t seen it at all will finally get to do that on the big screen. Even I`m planning to go for it. The last I watched it was at the Cannes Film Festival (2012). I don`t know how many people will be able to recognize me sitting in the audience with them!" Jaideep gushed.
