Not
too
many
people
know
Tusshar
and
super-cop
Daya
Nayak
have
shared
a
bonding
from
the
time
Tusshar
did
Raj
Kumar
Santoshi's
Khakee
three
years
ago.
"Over
there
Mr.
Nayak
liked
the
way
I
played
a
cop
and
congratulated
me
for
getting
it
right.
This
time
after
seeing
me
in
Shootout
At
Lokhandwala,
he
liked
the
way
I
played
the
gangster.
I
guess
being
a
cop
he
can
see
the
view
on
the
other
side
of
law
also."
The
success
of
Shootout...
has
put
a
smile
on
Ekta
Kapoor's
kid-brother's
face.
"Right
before
Shootout...
I
had
two
duds
one
after
the
other.
I
regret
doing
Kya
Love
Story
Hai.
But
sometimes
you
end
up
doing
the
wrong
films
for
the
right
reasons,
like
friendship.
As
for
Good
Boy
Bad
Boy,
it
underwent
too
many
script
changes
during
the
shoot,
until
no
one
was
sure
what
was
happening.
Shootout
...
was
a
shot
in
my
arm."
Tusshar
brightens
as
he
talks
of
all
the
preparation
he
undertook
to
play
the
uncouth
gangster.
"I
admit
I
wasn't
familiar
with
the
milieu
language
and
the
attitude
of
my
gangster
character
Buwa.
I
had
never
played
a
Tapori
before.
But
please
I'm
not
one
of
those
spoilt
rich
kids
who
know
nothing
about
life.
But
yes,
I
was
the
youngest
actor
on
the
team
and
needed
to
work
really
hard
to
keep
up
with
the
rest." The
young
actor
underwent
weeks
of
rehearsal
before
getting
into
the
gangster's
skin.
"Every
morning
I'd
play
my
character's
dialogues
on
a
tape
to
get
the
tone
right.
My
director
Apoorva
Lakhia
helped
me
a
lot."
The
two
have
become
close
friends.
"Apu
will
be
making
a
film
for
Ekta's
company.
But
that
will
take
some
time.
Before
that
Apu
is
doing
another
film.
In
the
meanwhile
no
more
mistakes
in
my
career.
My
next
release
is
Priyadarshan's
Dhol
which
was
a
real
challenge...
Not
because
I'm
not
familiar
with
comedy.
Of
course
I
am!
My
two
big
hits
before
Shootout...
were
Golmaal
and
our
home
production
Kya
Kool
Hain
Hum.
But
Dhol
was
unlike
any
of
my
previous
comedies
or
the
anything
Priyan
has
done.
At
the
beginning
Priyan
warned
me
and
my
costars..."
(And
here
Tusshar
does
a
touching
imitation
of
Priyan's
accent
)
'I
have
no
Akshay
Kumar
and
no
Paresh
Rawail
in
Dhol.
I'm
depending
on
you
boys'.
I
don't
think
I've
let
him
down."
Coming
up,
another
comedy
featuring
Paresh
Rawail
and
Suniel
Shetty
with
Tusshar
directed
by
Ashwin
Dheer
,
and
a
sequel
to
Kya
Kool
Hain
Hum.
So
is
he
becoming
typecast
as
a
titter-actor?
"How
can
you
say
that
after
Shootout...?"
Tusshar
protests.
"Besides
these
comedies
I'm
also
doing
a
thriller
called
Agar
with
Shreyas
Talpade
and
Udita
Goswami
directed
by
Anant
Mahadevan.
That's
no
laughing
matter."
As
for
the
Kya
Kool...
sequel
Tusshar
promises,
"It
will
be
far
more
restrained.
If
the
risqu
lines
and
situations
could
bring
in
the
youngsters,
think
of
what
a
cleaned-out
sequel
can
do!"
