Neil Bhoopalam, who plays a cop in The Raikar Case, on how he doesn't fear being overshadowed in a multi-starrer
Neil Bhoopalam in The Raikar Case
Admitting that deliciously dark thrillers are rare to come by, Neil Bhoopalam says that he was bowled over by the script of The Raikar Case. Couple that with the sharp character of John Pereira — a Goa-based police officer who investigates the murder of the youngest member in the Raikar family and finds himself opening a Pandora's box, in the process — and the actor was game.
"It's a murder mystery with elements of a family drama, and had me hooked. To help me play SP John Pereira, Aditya [Sarpotdar, director] pushed me towards a certain style of performance, which I had never explored before. My character had to be dynamic, but within the realm of reality. One can probably commit to larger-than-life characters and adopt an over-the-top style in films, but not in a web series," he explains.
