Sikandar
Kher
last
seen
in
Aarya
and
Mum
Bhai
is
all
set
to
make
his
Hollywood
debut
with
Monkey
Man.
The
actor
recently
opened
up
about
bagging
the
role
in
Dev
Patel's
directorial
debut
film
and
thanked
the
late
casting
director
Seher
Latif.
Kher
thanks
Seher
and
said
he
would
have
never
landed
this
path
as
anyone
would
have
thought
of
him
for
this
role.
Notably,
Seher
tragically
passed
away
in
June
this
year
after
a
sudden
cardiac
arrest.
Talking
about
the
Seher,
Sikander
said,
"A
casting
director
is
someone
an
actor
always
looks
up
to,
someone
he
depends
on
to
make
his
life.
Seher
was
one
such
person
for
me.
Soft
spoken,
always
smiling
and
extremely
professional,
I
knew
Seher
would
get
me
the
right
part
someday;
that
she
was
looking
out
for
me."
He
recalled
his
audition
for
the
action
thriller
and
going
for
a
meal
with
Seher.
He
told
the
portal,
"She
was
always
looking
out
to
get
me
something
good.
When
I
met
her
at
Famous
Studios
to
audition
for
Monkey
Man,
Dev
was
there
too
and
he
took
the
audition
and
then
the
three
of
us
went
out
for
a
meal.
It
was
such
a
wonderful
moment.
It
still
is."
"Just
that
Seher
is
no
longer
there
to
witness
the
exciting
path
she
put
me
on.
Had
it
not
been
for
her,
I
would
have
never
landed
this
path.
No
one
would
have
known
or
thought
of
me
for
this
role," he
added,
also
thanking
his
father
and
veteran
actor
Anupam
Kher,
for
being
the
constant
source
of
encouragement
and
inspiration.
Monkey
Man
reportedly
will
be
seen
as
the
unlikely
hero
who
emerges
from
prison
and
takes
on
the
world.
Penned
by
Dev
and
Paul
Angunawela,
the
film
also
stars
Dev
and
John
Collee
in
leading
roles.
Meanwhile,
apart
from
Monkey
Man,
Kher
will
also
be
seen
in
Sooryavanshi
alongside
Katrina
Kaif
and
Akshay
Kumar.
He's
upcoming
films
also
include
Sanjay
Dutt's
Tapad
and
Sushmita
Sen's
Aarya
