Jacqueline Fernandez says Murder 2 is dark and evil

Shedding her bubbly and sweet characters on-screen, Jacqueline Fernandez will be showing off her darker and evil shade in the upcoming sex-thriller Murder 2, opposite actor Emraan Hashmi. The actress says that Murder 2 has more evil content as compared to the prequel by Anurag Basu in 2004, starring Hashmi with Mallika Sherawat.

Jacqueline says that Murder 2 is a whole take of director Mohit Suri on the subject murder. “The film has a lot to do with the underworld in a Goan setting," the actress told PTI. In Murder 2, serial kisser Emraan Hashmi plays the role of a serial killer. Though there is no doubt, that Hashmi must have stood out while carrying his image as a serial kisser, Fernandez admits that it took sometime to adjust with the ways of her co-star.

"When you meet him first, he comes across as a lot quieter than what you would imagine. In films he looks like someone who is quite casual with a gift of the gab. However, in real life, he doesn't interact much. "This left me wondering how both of would us manage to work with each other as I talk so much. I was like 'Oh my God, would I have to keep my mouth shut for most of the times on sets'," she said.

A photo shoot for them was arranged before the film started its shooting, this acted as an ice breaker between the two. Thought they didn't become thick friends, it became a comfortable professional relationship. "Emraan has an extremely good sense of humour and makes you laugh in the most tense moments. In fact I was amazed at the manner he was kept his cool and was so chilled out even in adverse situations," told the Srilankan beauty.

Murder 2 is all set for July 8 release.
