Anurag Kashyap praises Bobby Deol’s bold performance in Bandar; says, “He’s so vulnerable in the film, so emotionally naked”
Calling it one of Bobby Deol’s most vulnerable performances to date, Kashyap highlighted the actor’s fearless approach to the role, especially after a recent resurgence in his mainstream career. “A complete surrender for somebody who’s been a star for the longest period of his time, then he has seen a total lull, and then when he’s getting all kinds of big mainstream movies, he picks Bandar and says, ‘I want to do it.’ Because he’s thinking, ‘I’ve never been asked to just be vulnerable.’ He’s so vulnerable in the film — so emotionally naked,” Anurag Kashyap shared.
Directed by Anurag Kashyap, known for films like Gangs of Wasseypur, Black Friday, and Ugly, the project carries his trademark storytelling style. Bobby Deol, currently enjoying a strong career resurgence, takes on the lead role, joined by Sanya Malhotra, Saba Azad, and Sapna Pabbi in key performances.
Producer Nikhil Dwivedi, who has backed successful films including Veere Di Wedding (2018) and CTRL (2024), continues his track record of backing unique stories. Dwivedi is also producing the upcoming fantasy drama Naagin starring Shraddha Kapoor. The release date of Bandar is yet to be announced.
