Shreyas Talpade on His Role as Atal Ji & Why He’s Not Cut Out for Modi Ji: “Biopics Galore…”

Arrey bhai, hold onto your popcorn because Shreyas Talpade is back in the spotlight! This time, he’s stepping into the shoes of the legendary Atal Bihari Bajpayee in the film "Emergency," directed and produced by none other than Kangana Ranaut. Released after a rollercoaster of delays on January 17, the film has everyone talking. 🎬

Emergency is all about the drama and politics of the Indira Gandhi era, with Kangana herself playing the iconic former Prime Minister. Our man Shreyas plays the opposition leader, Atal Bihari Bajpayee. And what does Shreyas have to say about all this? "The film is beautifully crafted," he gushes, praising Kangana and the legendary Anupam Kher along with the rest of the stellar cast. "I’m just hoping it hits the box office jackpot!" 🤞

When quizzed about portraying other political figures, Shreyas revealed his admiration for Hindu Hriday Samarajshree Balasaheb Thackeray. "It would be a dream to bring him to life on screen," he admits, eyes shining with admiration. 🎥

But wait, there’s more! Shreyas isn’t stopping at Thackeray. "Modiji, too, is on my wishlist," he confesses, though both these leaders have already had their biopics. Shreyas is still on the hunt for the next political icon to portray. "Stay tuned, I’ll spill the beans soon!" he hints with a wink. 😉

After "Emergency," Shreyas is ready to tickle your funny bones and kick some action into high gear with upcoming sequels of "Housefull," "Baaghi," and "Welcome." Buckle up, Bollywood fans, because Shreyas is on a roll! 🎭

Kiran’s Gyan: In Bollywood, my dosto, the only constant is change. Today you’re Atalji, tomorrow you’re a comic in "Housefull." Who knows, next you might be the Prime Minister… only in reel life, of course! 😜
