Kunal Kapoor is all set to return to the big screen with the murder mystery, Koi Jaane Na. The film revolves around a writer, who churns out pulp fiction novels, and features the actor with Amyra Dastur in lead roles. Amin Hajee, who makes his directorial debut with the suspense thriller, feels Kunal is the perfect fit to play the protagonist. Also, the fact that the actor is a huge fan of pulp fiction and an avid reader of the genre, helped him get into the skin of his character with ease.
Speaking about Kunal, Amin shares, “I had narrated him the script four years ago at his home. After the narration, he took me to his room and showed me his books. This story is about a character who writes pulp fiction, so he showed me all his books and out of all the books there, 80 per cent were pulp fiction.”
Amin Hajee says, “Kunal smiled and told me, ‘You know I am your Kabir’ and I said, ‘I know you are.’ I thought he was right for the part because of his physique and other characteristics, but the guy within was also the same person.”
The director shares, “Kunal came up to me with many fabulous ideas. He has not just been my lead actor but also helped me on the creative front.”
Kunal is thrilled with the response to the film’s trailer. Many people from the industry, too, have appreciated it. Hrithik Roshan took to social media and applauded it, saying he ‘loved it’, while Abhishek Bachchan said that the trailer looks ‘killer’ and that he was happy to see Kunal back on screen. Vicky Kaushal, Ali Fazal, Sunny Kaushal and others also praised Kunal and the trailer. Kunal responded saying, “I’m overwhelmed by the response the trailer has received.”
The trailer gives the audience a glimpse of Kunal’s intense performance and look in Koi Jaane Na, along with the chemistry he shares with Amyra, which stands out. Get ready to watch the nail-biting thriller on April 2 at a theatre near you.
