Rajat Barmecha shows dark side in 'Shaitan'

Mumbai, April 28 (IANS) His role as a teenage rebel in 'Udaan' won him multiple awards and now Rajat Barmecha will be seen in a negative role in Anurag Kashyap's production venture 'Shaitan'.

'I have done a cameo in Anurag's next film 'Shaitan'. The role is much different from my role in 'Udaan'. In 'Shaitan' I am playing a negative character. It's of two-three minutes long, but I loved doing it,' Rajat told IANS.

Directed by Beejoy Nambiar, 'Shaitan' is about a group of Mumbai youngsters with actors Kalki Koechlin, Nikhil Chinappa, Sheetal Menon and Rajit Kapoor playing the lead roles.

The unprecedented success of 'Udaan', which was co-produced by Kashyap, has made Rajat extremely choosy about his next film as he doesn't want to disappoint his fans.

'I am doing lots of commercials. There is couple of (film) offers, which I liked. Let's see if they work out. 'Udaan' was such a good film and people appreciated my work so much that I want my second film if not better, it should be equally good,' said Rajat, 22.
