“Only Rakeysh Mehra could have imagined me like that.
I hope I can keep running forever.” I remind him of his running after the wolf sequence in Aks and he perks up. “An actor’s body ensures his bread and butter. He says he runs 45 minutes to an hour each day on the treadmill.

(This report has been published as part of the auto-generated syndicate wire feed. For its team, however, it has been a fertile ground that gave them the space for their talent to blossom and their stars to shine. For some, it is an emotion for other, it is an experience. The actor, who married Katrina Kaif last year, and has delivered hits such as 'Uri' and 'Sanju', even starred in 'Gangs of Wasseypur' as a silhouette in the brothel scene where Nagma Khatoon (Richa Chadha) comes looking for Sardar Khan (Manoj Bajpayee). Since then, Vicky has become a Bollywood sensation and heartthrob of Hindi cinema aficionados. He had been referred to Anurag by his father, Sham Kaushal, who had choreographed the action in 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. This story won't be complete without the mention of Vicky Kaushal, who was a third assistant director on the film. Post the success of 'Masaan', Ghaywan, who met his mentor Anurag Kashyap through the latter's now-defunct cinema blog, Passion for Cinema, has delivered projects such as 'Sacred Games 2' and 'Ajeeb Daastaans'. The film's first assistant director, Neeraj Ghaywan, took the leap of faith and brought laurels to the country with his directorial debut, 'Masaan', as it bagged two awards at the 68th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, including the Promising Future prize in the Un Certain Regard section. It's not just the cast of 'Gangs of Wasseypur' who benefitted from it. The actor went on to star in acclaimed films such as ‘Shahid' and ‘Aligarh', forming an unbreakable bond with filmmaker Hansal Mehta, whose directorial ‘Shahid' revived his career and gave him a new voice as a filmmaker. Rao played Shamshad, Faizal's (Nawazuddin) partner turned foe. Many people will consider 'Shahid' to be Rajkummar Rao's claim to fame, but he had already made his presence felt with his powerful performance in 'Love Sex Aur Dhokha', followed by 'Gangs'. Richa Chadha has been promised the role of Durga by Anurag Kashyap, but it went went to Reema Sen because nobody was ready to play Sardar's first wife, Nagma Khatoon, and it was Richa who saved the day for Kashyap as she did complete justice to the part. Ahlawat followed his success in 'Gangs of Wasseypur' with 'Commando: A One Man Army', 'Gabbar Is Back', 'Raazi' and 'Paatal Lok'. A product of the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Ahlawat had been referred to Kashyap by Manoj Bajpayee during the initial narration. Post his appearance in the film, he went on to star in some of the most loved films and web series, from 'Newton', 'Masaan', 'Dilwale' and 'Ludo' to 'Mirzapur' and 'Sacred Games'.Īnother actor who turned out to be a bankable name is Jaideep Ahlawat, who played Shahid Khan, Sardar Khan's father. A former NSD alumnus, just like Nawaz, Pankaj was struggling to find work before 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. Pankaj Tripathi, who essayed the role of the butcher Sultan with a penchant for gore, also acquired a massive fan following. He went on to be featured in some of the biggest films of the 2010s, sharing the big screen with the likes of Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir and Salman. The success of 'Gangs of Wasseypur', clubbed with 'Kahaani' and 'Talaash: The Answer Lies Within', catapulted the actor to stardom. Nawazuddin, who earlier got small roles and struggled for nearly a decade, became an overnight star, courtesy of his powerhouse acting which was both realistic and robust to say the least. Other artists, who benefited from the film and have gone on to rule the roost every since, include a string of now-celebrated talents. The only exception was 'Dev D', which in a way helped the director generate the recall value for the Manoj Bajpayee and Nawazuddin Siddiqui-starrer 'Gangs of Wasseypur'. It came as a big relief for him, as his earlier films either never saw the light of day ('Paanch'), or were banned ('Black Friday'), or were simply sleeper hits ('Gulaal').
