Mohit Raina on his face off with Roshan Mathew in Kankhajura, “It’s very important in a two-actor story that both actors are secure”

In Kankhajura, you and Roshan Mathew play against one another in a pitch-perfect jugalbandi
With time I have realised it’s very important in a two-actor story that both actors are secure. Otherwise, it can become very tricky. Luckily, I had a great experience. Roshan is very secure about his craft. The give and take in each scene was organic. The base of our equation was that, and now we do share a lot more than just actors.

Was it tough getting into the mind of this complex morally ambivalent character?
Kankhajura gave me an opportunity to play Max, an extremely complex character. Our director Chandan Arora was very clear since inception about the layers of Max; it’s his baby and he has spent a lot more time on it than us actors. I just followed his vision.

But how do you view Max?
Max is both, a man on a mission to achieve everything by hook or crook and not letting go of any opportunity. He can go to any extent to achieve what he desires.

Do you see the OTT space as a blessing for actors like you?
The OTT space is definitely a blessing. A lot has changed in last 2 years. Makers have specially realised mediocrity will not be accepted. You have to have something different to pitch to the audience. they are currently ruthless.

Did you watch the original Israeli serial Magpie?
I deliberately didn’t see the original series as I didn’t want a reference point in my head. At times, it’s good to start on a clean slate.

Was it hard snapping out of such a dark character?
Snapping out of a character now after working for so many years is not that difficult. Few breathing exercises and a look in the cell phone does it for me.

Are you satisfied with your journey so far?
I am satisfied with my journey, though I feel there’s still a lot to explore and I still have a lot more in me to give.

What next?
Next is a love story. Hopefully, should be able to talk about it soon .

The fan screening of Raanjhanaa (2013) was held at a multiplex in Mumbai on the occasion of its 12th anniversary by DIY Solutions and was attended by the film’s team – actors Dhanush and Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub, then-child-actor Naman Jain, director Aanand L Rai, writer Himanshu Sharma and lyricist Irshad Kamil. Sonam Kapoor couldn’t make it and the team kept a picture of her on the seat. The event began with the screening of the film after which stand-up comic Devansh Singh entertained the crowd. Laksh Maheshwari, then, in his trademark style narrated the film’s story and also hosted the talk.

Dhanush began by saying, “Har Har Mahadev!” He continued, “12 years later, you guys are still here to watch this film. My heartfelt thanks to all of you. As he (Laksh Maheshwari) said, this is not our film anymore. So, you guys are here to celebrate your film!”

He added, “None of the scenes were tough for me. I deal with all the scenes in the same way. The toughest part was the dubbing. I dubbed myself. Now, I can at least say a few words, but back then, I did not know the Hindi language. Himanshu and I wanted to kill each other. Himanshu would be there when I was dubbing. He would correct me. I’ll say ‘Baabi’ and he’ll say, ‘Its Bhabhi’. I’ll argue, ‘I said the same thing’! He would remark that its ‘Bha’ and I would pronounce it as ‘Ba’! Hence, it was tougher for him than for me. However, I was very angry with him as I used to dub Tamil films in a day while dubbing for Raanjhanaa took 8-9 days. It kept going and I was getting frustrated.”

The host asked Dhanush if it was difficult for him to adapt to the body language of a North Indian man. The superstar quipped, “That’s not true. I didn’t do anything. Body language means what? All boys are the same!”

He then stated, “I just copied what Himanshu told me. I didn’t understand the pronunciation, which word to stress and also the body language like you said. He would send me voice notes every night. He used to talk so fast that I thought it was better I would prepare without the voice notes (smiles)!”
