“I Am Reliving My Youth In Roop”, Says Shashank Vyas

Jyothi Venkaetsh

Shashank Vyas has always tasted success with his portrayal of characters like Jagya in Balika Badhu and Ravish in Jaana Na Dil Se Door. He always made those roles very close to his heart and that's why the audience has been very positive about Shashank's performance. Roop Singh Baghela is not an exception to that. Says Shashank says, "It's more than two and a half months now and I have only got four day offs. It's going very hectic and crazy. I am shooting round the clock and as am playing the title role and every scene has me. I am enjoying every bit of it. Before I took up Roop I was just done with my transformation. I weighed 82 kg and what you see more is post transformation. Roop is a college going boy so for that I stopped workouts and lost 5kg. I have become very lean now and am getting feedbacks where people have said that am suiting the role. I am 31 now and playing a college going boy is definitely challenging. But am happy audience has accepted me as Roop. The other day I met one of the old directors from my first show Balika Badhu. He actually pointed out that then and now in eight years nothing has changed. I am still playing a young guy." Any kind of reference you have taken from your college life? "Not really my college life was not so happening like Roop. I am completely going with the script. I am reliving my youth in Roop. The character of Roop has all the ingredients of a quintessential Hindi film hero”.
