Vicky
Kaushal
is
currently
busy
prepping
for
his
upcoming
film,
Aditya
Dhar's
The
Immortal
Ashwatthama.
The
sci-fi
film
has
the
Uri
actor
essaying
the
role
of
a
superhero.
According
to
reports,
Vicky's
character
in
the
film
is
inspired
by
the
warrior
Ashwatthama,
who
played
a
crucial
role
in
the
war
between
Pandavas
and
Kauravas
in
Mahabharata.
Vicky
has
been
taking
horse-riding
lessons
to
get
into
the
skin
of
his
character.
While
training
with
the
equines,
the
young
star
got
'little
too
inspired
by
Majnu
bhai's
painting'
from
Welcome.
For
those
unversed,
in
one
of
the
scenes
in
this
2007
comic
caper,
Anil
Kapoor's
character
Majnu
Bhai
draws
a
painting
in
which
a
donkey
is
seen
standing
atop
a
horse.
The
painting
continues
to
be
a
subject
of
memes
on
social
media.
Vicky
shared
a
picture
in
which
he
is
seen
performing
a
balancing
act
while
on
the
horse's
back.
However,
it
was
the
actor's
hilarious
caption
for
the
snap
which
left
the
netizens
in
splits.
Vicky
captioned
the
photo
as,
"Got
a
little
too
inspired
by
Majnu
bhai's
painting
this
morning," and
even
tagged
Anil
Kapoor
in
the
picture.
Vicky's
post
received
some
funny
reactions
from
his
colleagues
from
the
flm
industry.
Tiger
Shroff
commented,
"Crazyy".

Speaking
about
The
Immortal
Ashwatthama,
Vicky
had
called
it
the
biggest
film
of
his
career
yet
and
said
that
it's
going
to
be
an
exhilarating
experience
for
him
to
explore
technology
alongside
his
craft.
The
