He kicked off the year with two releases, Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein and Ranjish Hi Sahi, in a month. Now, Tahir Raj Bhasin is counting the days to his third and probably wackiest offering, Looop Lapeta. While the unconventional plot of the film — an official adaptation of the German hit, Run Lola Run (1998) — is enough to lure an actor, director Aakash Bhatia was the primary reason Bhasin came on board. He recalls, “Usually, the writer or the director reads out the script, or asks you to read it. But this is the first narration where the director played every character in the script. He enacted every scene, and I was blown away by the passion with which he narrated.” In the Netflix film, he plays Satya who asks his girlfriend Savi, portrayed by Taapsee Pannu, to help him out of a sticky situation. A quirky ride of time loop and life-altering decisions follows. Bhasin says that the energy on the set translated on screen. “This is the youngest set I have been on. There is fresh energy that comes with it.” The actor found the perfect partner-in-crime in co-star Pannu. “With her, what you see is what you get. There is no pretense — that is endearing. If I want an honest opinion in life, I will connect with Taapsee.”
Bhasin adds that the quirky comedy reflects his love for unconventional stories. “It’s an artiste’s job to not play safe. The minute you play safe, you will get stuck in a comfort zone. Personally, I never want to be there.”
I would not recommend infidelity’
‘Life is too short to be doing something that you do not love.’
Who doesn’t like a love triangle?
After ‘83, Tahir Raj Bhasin will be seen in a love triangle, Ranjish Hi Sahi, co-starring Amrita Puri and South sensation Amala Paul.
