The Story in Brief
Actor Suvinder Vicky, known for 'Kohrra', has spoken about his contrasting roles in the blockbuster 'Dhurandhar 2', the banned film 'Satluj', and the upcoming 'Awarapan 2'. In an exclusive interview with Hindustan Times, he said he used abusive language towards Arjun Rampal's character in 'Dhurandhar 2' but the script avoided targeting mothers and sisters. The actor added that director Aditya Dhar stopped him from improvising to keep the language respectful.
'Satluj', a film about the 1984 riots, was not released in theatres but a pirated version is circulating. Vicky said films find a way to reach audiences despite censorship. For 'Awarapan 2', releasing on August 14, he praised co-star Shabana Azmi as a supportive actor who looked like an 18-year-old girl. He also said actors should first be humans and speak on social issues.
The Indian Opinion
The usual complaints about abusive language in films miss the mark, as Vicky shows, audiences can tell reel from real. The 'Satluj' ban, however, sparks a valid debate: does censorship hide history rather than protect it? Vicky's admission that pirated versions let the film reach people is practical but problematic for the industry. The real test will be whether 'Awarapan 2' can match the legacy of the original nearly two decades later, or whether nostalgia alone can fill theatres.
