00:00Why did you start with this movie or you read the script and you liked it and you did it?
00:06What was the reason for choosing this movie?
00:09Ma'am, first I auditioned for another film.
00:12And then that other film became this film.
00:15Because they wanted a new actor for this character.
00:20About whom there is no baggage or who has done any other film.
00:25So that an audience gets a new perspective.
00:28So I think after the audition crack.
00:31When I came to know that this is Vayu Sena's movie.
00:33And it is a movie of a warrior.
00:36In the war of 1965, he went alone in front of the enemy.
00:42He saved his brothers and the members of the Vayu Sena.
00:47Coming in front of the danger.
00:48So I mean, I was very much influenced by it.
00:55And his life is a great journey in the army.
01:00So it is my good fortune that I got a chance to play a real character.
01:05And the second question you asked, was it safe?
01:10I don't think safe guarantees anything today.
01:15I always thought in my life that if I get a chance, I would like to take a lot of risks.
01:21So I think this is the first film of Air Force.
01:25Which is based on a true incident.
01:28And I got a chance to have a moustache in the first film.
01:35And to play the role of a father.
01:37And it is a great thing.
01:39You cried a lot while doing that scene.
01:42So would you like to say something about that?
01:45I feel that a sacrifice for a country is not a big thing in the world.
01:58Leaving your family and friends and doing your life for the country.
02:03So I got a chance to play the role of a real hero.
02:10So whatever they did, all my emotions came out.
02:16And I hugged my directors and I cried.
02:19I couldn't control myself.
02:21Will you keep looking at the screen?
02:24Is this the beginning of your Bollywood journey?
02:28Yes, absolutely.
02:29This is just the first page.
02:31And this is a very serious character.
02:34And this will be my wish.
02:38Like the Laksh film.
02:40Which inspired people to join the army for 20 years.
02:44And to serve the country.
02:46Sky Force will also be a film like that.
02:51Which will inspire young people for the next 20-30 years.
02:56And they will know what our forefathers did for our freedom.
03:01So that you and I can sit and talk.
03:04What message would you like to give?
03:07My message to everyone is.
03:10Do watch Sky Force.
03:12You will feel very proud.
03:15You will learn about family, love, sacrifice.
03:19And a true biopic and a true emotional story will connect you.
03:24Thank you very much.
03:25And wish you a very happy Gan Tantar Day.
03:27Your movie Sky Force is releasing on 24th of January.
03:33So first of all, what would you like to say about the movie?
03:37And as it is your first movie.
03:39What was the experience working on this movie?
03:43Working on my first film Sky Force was rather overwhelming.
03:47It is a huge opportunity and a responsibility for me to play a real life hero.
03:52Squadron leader A.B. Devaiah.
03:54Who was one of the heroes of the 1965 India-Pakistan war.
03:58Which we won against overwhelming odds.
04:01And when we had subsonic fighter jets as compared to the supersonic ones that Pakistan had.
04:06It is a story that needs to be told.
04:09For the future generations to get inspired by what our heroes of our country have done for our freedom.
04:14But not only that.
04:15I think it is a very personal story.
04:17It is a very human story.
04:18And it is about family.
04:20It's about brotherhood.
04:21It's about friendship.
04:22And the most important thing that we as human beings must be.
04:25It's about loyalty.
04:26So that's why I urge everyone to watch this film to learn something new.
04:30And how was it to work with Akshay Kumar, Nimrit Kaur and Sara Ali Khan?
04:33It was rather frightening at first.
04:36Because they are so experienced in this industry.
04:39But you know when I got the opportunity to face the camera with them.
04:44And do scenes with them.
04:45They were very comforting.
04:46They were very hungry artists.
04:48And they have a lot of passion.
04:51A lot of dedication.
04:52That's why they are where they are.
04:54So it is something that me as a newcomer.
04:56I was really inspired.
04:58And they really kept me on my toes.
