New
Beginnings
For
Dulquer
Salmaan
When
we
asked
Akarsh
how
different
he
would
be
presenting
Dulquer
Salmaan
in
his
Bollywood
debut,
the
filmmaker
exclusively
told
us,
"Fortunately
Bollywood
doesn't
have
an
opinion
of
Dulquer
Salmaan
yet.
They
are
aware
of
him
as
a
Malayalam
star."
On
Casting
Dulquer
Salmaan
Akarsh
said,
"Dulquer
thought
his
role
in
Karwaan
was
different
and
interesting
enough
for
him
to
take
it
up.
We
didn't
have
a
baggage
of
him
being
different
or
unique
because
he
will
be
seen
in
a
Hindi
cinema
for
the
first
time."
The
Zoya
Factor
Is
Completely
Different
From
Karwaan
He
said,
"
It's
good
to
know
that
his
second
film,
The
Zoya
Factor
is
a
totally
different
role.
So,
that
film
is
completely
different
from
what
he's
doing
in
Karwaan."
Is
Karwaan
Different
From
Dulquer's
Earlier
Films?
To
this,
Akarsh
told
us,
"I
think
there
may
be
similarities
with
some
of
the
characters
that
he
has
played
earlier.
We
did
discuss
that
over
time.
You
might
get
reminded
of
some
of
his
earlier
films
in
Malayalam
cinema,
say
for
example,
Ustaad
Hotel.
But
the
situation
in
Karwaan
is
very
new
and
different.
Dulquer
is
playing
a
very
normal
guy
in
my
film."
The
'Buzzing' First
Look
Poster
Recently,
the
makers
of
Karwaan
unveiled
the
first
look
poster
of
the
film
featuring
the
lead
actors-
Irrfan
Khan,
Dulquer
Salmaan
and
Mithila
Palkar.
It
featured
the
trio
sipping
some
coconut
water
by
the
roadside
and
an
interesting
tagline
which
read-
3
lost
souls,
2
dead
bodies,
a
journey
of
a
lifetime'.
While
the
poster
was
already
the
talk
of
the
town,
it
trended
more
when
Irrfan
Khan
returned
to
Twitter
for
the
first
time
in
two
months
to
talk
about
his
upcoming
release.
The
actor
is
currently
undergoing
treatment
abroad
for
Neuro
Endocrine
Tumour.
