Vinay Pathak's witty and humble nature might put anyone at ease. His films are a classic treat, as the actor admits it's all about storytelling. The Bheja Fry star's method acting is a delight to watch. While he has always been entertaining the audience with several mad-cap satires, Pathak, once again is all set to mesmerise the audience with a phenomenal subject – a tongue-in-cheek comedy, Khajoor Pe Atke. In an exclusive interview with mid-day online, Vinay Pathak explains the subject of this film and why every middle-class family will relate to it.
We sure know the meaning of the idiom, Khajoor pe Atke, but we would like you to make us explain the context of it in terms of this film?
It’s a fantastic film. Khajoor Pe Atke is a Hindi idiom as we all know. So, the film is about getting out of a problem just to fall into another trouble. Lots of time what happens is that you think you’re troubles are over, and then you realise that a bigger trouble is awaiting you. So, that’s what it means. The reason the film has a title like this because the plot is such. It is very realistic. It’s not deliberately given a comic plot. In fact, it’s a very serious and tragic one. There are three brothers, and I am playing the younger one. Manoj Pahwa is playing the elder brother, and the other brother is in the ICU. He is comatose and it’s the family tragedy that occurs. So, the film starts with it, and the brother, who is in the ICU lives in Bombay, and the other two brothers live in different cities.
Why do you think one should watch this film? In what way will it strike a chord with the audience?
