Pankit Thakkar, the adorable Dr. Atul of Dill Mill Gayye, is all set to sizzle the 70 mm screen. The actor will be seen playing the lead role in the upcoming movie 'Zindagi Live'. The movie is based on mercy killing and revolves around a true incident that occurred in Orissa. Telly Buzz caught up with him to know more.

When asked the reason for accepting such a unique role, Pankit says, “I took up this role mainly because I found the script really interesting. I was touched after listening to the story. The movie is based on mercy killing, something that takes place on a large scale in our country.” He further adds, “I have always wanted to do something for the destitute and people suffering in . I think this movie is the one opportunity for me to create awareness in the country about the unheard topic of mercy killing.”

The movie also stars Milind Gunaji, who plays the character of the father suffering from an incurable disease with Anupama Verma and Ragini Khanna playing his daughters.

We sure hope Pankit manages to convey the message of the horrors of mercy killing thru’ his movie.

Hes really cute and funny! A good actor! Wish him all the best in Bollywood, in his offbeat movie. Mercy killing aka Euthanasia is an untouched topic in Indian movies so it will be unique Im sure, hope they handle the serious issue with care.
