Kunaal Roy Kapur Turns Aashiq with Mushkil - Fear Behind You

Kunaal Roy Kapur known for his histrionics in films like Delhi Belly, Nautanki Saala! & Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani & his sense of comic timing is now turning a romantic hero with Rajiv S Ruia’s Mushkil - Fear Behind You, produced by Ravinder Jeet Dariya. Kunaal is seen romancing Sanjay Dutt’s niece, Nazia Hussain, in the lush locales of Greece. Director Rajiv S Ruia, who was unsure whether Kunaal would consent to a romantic number actually had the song written in shayrana andaaz and had composer Vardan Singh set the romantic duet to tune. Kunaal was not just mesmerized by the song, but loved the lyrics of Anjaan Sagri.

Adds Kunaal, “I was worried at first because the song was romantic but I knew that comedy would be on top of my mind. But when I heard the song I knew that I should try and live up to the faith that director Rajiv S Ruia had in me.” Nazia & Kunaal, who also gel very well, are co-stars & as people complimented each other enabling the song to be picturized as envisaged by Ruia. “It was not  an easy task for Nazia. While I was in a suit, she had to shoot in extreme cold in glamorous outfits.” Adds Nazia, “It was not easy &, at times, my teeth were chattering when I was emoting my romantic best. Between shoots, the unit rushed to cover me with rugs.”

Adds Rajiv S Ruia, “In the last scene, Nazia fell & we had to rush, pick her up & take care of her. Both Nazia & Kunaal are great sports & the picturization of the song has come out brilliantly, bringing to life the virgin locales in Greece. After this film, I am sure Kunaal will have a lot of romantic films coming to him.
