Jeet is set to star in 'Keu Bole Biplabi Keu Bole Dakat', a film inspired by the life of Ananta Singh, a revolutionary who fought alongside Masterda Surya Sen and later turned dacoit. The movie asks: when does a revolutionary become a criminal? In an exclusive chat with India TV News, Jeet said he plays nine shades of the character and acknowledged that 'there's no safe formula in cinema'. The film releases on August 14, eyeing the Independence Day window.
