“It’s very difficult. It’s physically, emotionally, mentally very draining. It’s my biggest challenge yet as an actor. I prepared very hard for it, almost a month. We have started shooting and Bhansali is pretty happy with the way things have shaped up,” Ranveer told PTI in an interview.
The 31-year-old actor hopes to do justice to the role, which he considers as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
“I am excited to get back into it after the Christmas break. It’s something I am still grappling with, still exploring, still discovering the character,” he said.
“I am at a very nascent stage of discovering this layered character. It’s a part of a lifetime and I hope I can do justice to it,” Ranveer said.
