Ashish Chowdhry, The Gorilla!

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,June 01 2011]

Now don’t let your mind do the racing… We didn’t mean nothing like that! In fact we were just referring to one of the actor’s character in Reliance Entertainment and Maruti International’s upcoming comedy caper ‘Double Dhamaal’.

Ashish Chowdhry is back with bang in ‘Double Dhamaal’, the sequel of 2007 blockbuster ‘Dhamaal’. And how? With around half-a-dozen getups….and not all human!! After generating eyeballs for his Barbara Horie, girl avatar, Lady Ash is now a gorilla!!!!

Interestingly, his gorilla outfit in the comic caper has a Hollywood connection; it’s a Planet of the Apes costume!

“On the plus side I got a chance to slip into a Planet of the Apes costume. On the downside, it stank to high heaven,” Ashish says wrinkling his nose in disgust. “It can’t be dry-cleaned. I don’t know how many others got into it and sweated buckets inside it.” He laughs.

Produced by Ashok Thakeria and Indra Kumar with direction by Indra Kumar, this laugh riot is shaping up to be one of the most awaited releases this year, hitting theaters on June 24th.
