Playing ‘colourful role’ in ‘Luka Chuppi’: Pankaj Tripathi

NEW DELHI:  Actor Pankaj Tripathi who will be seen playing an estate agent from Mathura in Kartik Aaryan starrer ‘Luka Chuppi’, describes it as a ‘colourful role’.

”It is a ‘colourful role’. My character is a man with a different sense of humour and whenever the story gets too complicated, he has some contribution to make,” Pankaj said.

”So far, the audience has only seen me playing simple, sober and desi characters.This time you will see me wearing colourful clothes and I even have highlights in my hair,” he said.

”Pankaj is someone with an endearing and ridiculous sense of humour, he just makes you crack up. In ‘Luka Chuppi’, he plays an estate agent from Mathura who owns an agency called Baby Doll, which is right opposite a sari shop because he is a bachelor looking for his life partner,” Producer Dinesh Vijan said.

Pankaj is reuniting with his onscreen daughter from ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ and admits of having a great bond with Kriti Sanon. Pankaj finds her to be a very sincere and hardworking girl.

On sharing screen space with Kartik Aaryan for the first time, Pankaj said, ”He has always showered me with compliments for films like ‘Nil Battey Sannata’ and ‘Newton’. So I have known him for quite some time.” The first schedule of the film began in Gwalior last week. ‘Luka Chuppi’ will be directed by Laxman Utekar. After ‘Stree’, Pankaj Tripathi is again collaborating with Maddock Films
