Darlings: Roshan Mathew Opens Up On Working With Alia Bhatt, Shefali Shah, And Vijay Varma, 'They Are Incredible Actors, I was Slightly Overwhelmed' - EXCLUSIVE
Malyalam superstar Roshan Mathew talks about working on his second Bollywood film Darlings, this expectation from the film and his dream list actors and directors with whom he would love to work with.
Roshan Mathew is known for his films like Geetu Mohandas' 2019 drama "Moothon", Netflix's "Kappela" (2020) and Anurag Kashyap's "Choked". He also had a very powerful role in Malayalam crime-thriller "Kuruthi". And to feature alongside a powerful cast, led by superstar Prithviraj Sukumaran was a pretty big deal for the actor. According to Roshan, he particularly looks out for such characters that don't restrict him from playing heavy-duty characters.
While it is needless to say every actor from any industry always has list actors and directors that they would love to work probe Roshan if he does too, he replies, “In Bollywood, not so much. I have not spent much time thinking about it. It all happened out of the blue for me, the first film that I did in Hindi which Anurag sir called me for happened because he saw the edit of Murthan and he liked it, and he almost immediately called me up. So, there was never really a plan." He continues, "I know I want to work wherever I can, whichever language I am comfortable with, whichever character I think I will convincingly play. But the list of people I want to collaborate with has sort of always been restricted to Malayalam. That may be beginning to change now when I watch a really good movie from Bollywood. You sort of think, that the people that worked on it as a little bit more accessible, I would have maybe in the last 3-4 years. Maybe that will change, but so far there are only people in Malayalam that I have a dream list of."
