Already news had been out that we will see Farhan Akhtar play the role of an ATS cop for the first time in his upcoming film, Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 'Wazir'. Surprisingly Farhan has directed super hits films, 'Don' and 'Don 2', however as an actor he has never done an action film before.
Similarly, Farhan, as part of his character, has held a gun which is again a first for him. So, before shooting for 'Wazir', the actor had to take some training to hold the gun. He needed to get the body language right. Said producer Vinod Chopra, "When I saw Farhan holding the gun on the big screen I felt he is the most natural actor to be doing action films. I was shocked when Bejoy told me that Wazir is Farhan's first action film."
Our reliable sources revealed that the makers had hired someone professional to train Farhan for the same as a gun is something Farhan's character had to look most comfortable with. The actor picked up the nuances quickly and was ready to roll with the gun.
Farhan's look has created a huge stir among the audiences and everyone is now eagerly waiting for the teaser trailer of the film to see Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar in the same frame. Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, 'Wazir' is set for release this year.
