Speaking of his character, Eddie in Black Widows, Aamir says, “After playing Keshwani in Naxalbari, it was a complete u-turn for me to switch to Eddie. Black Widows will see me in an entirely different avatar again where I play a naive character, who is innocent and has his own charm. It might sound simple but I had to shake up the actor in me to play the part. It was a lot of hard work but a lot of fun to explore a very different side of me.”
Black Widows is an engaging story with plenty of suspense and a large dose of dark humor. The show was shot in Kolkata during the pandemic, keeping all safety precautions in mind.
