A still from Lootere
The opportunity to experience new things is what thrills an actor. So when Vivek Gomber got the break to feature in a larger-than-life setting, play a flamboyant protagonist, and perform heavy-duty action, it was a no-brainer. “As a young man, you always want to do action,” laughs the actor who is set to feature in creator Hansal Mehta and director Jai Mehta’s thriller drama Lootere.
The Disney+ Hotstar series is about the hijacking of an Indian ship by Somali pirates. To Gomber, who is known for his work in films like Court (2014) and Sir (2018), it was exciting that he was being trusted to headline the show. “I had never been offered a chance to play something like this before. To be in a thriller that offers action and to have the responsibility of being a prominent character in the narrative [is exciting]. [Doing] a larger-than-life project is new for me,” says the actor, adding that while he is leading the charge, Lootere is not a one-man show.
