'Special Squad'hero refuses Ekta, bags Hollywood flick!
Bhanu Uday |
He is a man who comes across as someone who knows what he is talking about. He speaks his mind out and makes no bones about his likes and dislikes. Meet Bhanu Uday, the man who plays Aryan, the charismatic leader in Star One's Special Squad.
"I came to Mumbai to work in movies, but soon realized that I didn't fit in", says this NSD graduate. He did not want to do stock roles that did not satisfy his creative instincts. But this has not prevented him from signing a Hollywood flick, Searching for Sara, co-starring Manoj Bajpai, which will be shot in Jaisalmer. A newcomer, Bhanu had no qualms about refusing Ekta Kapoor's offer of playing Kkavya in Star Plus' Kkavyanjali.

Refused Ekta Kapoor! That's new! I Ask him why, and I realize that there is more to this man than what meets the eye --- "I refuse to do something that is not true. And the kind of work that this lady does, is not something that I want to be part of", a vehement Bhanu points out.
A theatre actor, a method actor, an actor who contributes in the creation of the serial that he is part of, Bhanu, chose to play Aryan because it had different shades to it --- the experience of the pain of loss and the satisfaction in work. This, he says is what he is looking for, a character with depth, something that did not excite him about playing Kkavya.
Bhanu will now take a sabbatical from Special Squad for three episodes, but he will be back, he assures us. Ekta, or not, this is one actor who seems to be all set to make his mark on the telly!
