‘Dark, Edgier…Stakes Are High’

Taapsee
Pannu
feels
her
reprisal
of
Rani
in

Phir
Aayi
Hasseen
Dillruba
is
darker
and
more
intense.

“The
most
difficult
aspect
was
to
fulfill
expectations
of
the
audience,”
she
says.

“Apart
from
that,
performance-wise,
it
was
not
that
challenging,
as
after
doing
the
first
part,
I
knew
what
the
audience
liked
about
the
character
and
what
not.
So
this
time
I
got
a
chance
for
correction,”
says
Taapsee.

“I
approached
Part
Two
with
more
confidence
than
I
did
with


Part
One.
I
hope
the
audience
feels
the
same
way.
This
time
the
character
is
darker,
and
edgier
and
the
stakes
are
high.”

Vikrant
Massey,
who
played
her
husband
Rishu
in

Haseen
Dillruba,
spoke
about
reprising
his
role
and
what
the
audience
can
expect
from
his
character
this
time.

“The
audience
can
expect
me
to
handle,

ek
haath
hai
mera,”
he
laughed
and
added,
“I
won’t
open
up
much
about
my
character
as
I
want
the
audience
to
experience
it.
But
as
Taapsee
said,
it
is
edgier,
crazier,
darker
and
more
entertaining.”

Sunny
Kaushal
and
Jimmy
Shergill
are
also
part
of
the
film.

On
why
he
decided
to
do
the
film,
Sunny
replied
jokingly,
“Rani

ka
aashiq
banne
ko
mil
raha
tha,”
adding,
“You
just
watch
the
film
and
you
will
know
why
I
did
it.
I
never
imagined
and
thought
about
such
a
character.”

Taapsee
Pannu,
Vikrant
Massey,
Sunny
Kaushal
and
Jimmy
Shergill

their
film

Delhi
and
spoke
about
their

capital.

Taapsee
recalled
shopping

while
Jimmy
recalled
enjoying
the
street
food
in
Delhi
and
said:
“I
love
