Rakta Charitra gives Vivek nostalgia

  • IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,December 15 2009]

Nearly after seven years, Ram Gopal Verma’s touted project ‘Rakta Charitra’ said to bring the ace filmmaker and its lead actor Vivek Oberoi together.

The night before the first day of shoot said to have given Vivek anxiety and the actor said to have lost sleep thinking about the next day. He tried to relax himself by watching a movie and listening to music. However, when Vivek came on the sets in the morning he felt it to be strangely familiar. “It was like I was back on the sets of Company. I was really emotional the first day. It was like an end of saat saal ka vanvaas,” recalled Vivek.

The shooting that day involved a sequence which the actor stated as one of the most difficult scenes of his career. “But the minute I did it, Ramu said, ‘I lived with the character for two years and you walk in and do one scene, like you’ve known the character for years’. That felt great!” revealed the actor who was quite elated to hear such compliment from his mentor.
