Vicky Kaushal made a brief special appearance in the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer ‘Dunki,’ leaving a lasting impression with his portrayal in the film. Anil Grover, who co-starred with the ‘Raazi’ actor in the Rajkumar Hirani-directed movie, revealed that during one scene, they engaged in little ‘method acting’ by getting drunk on vodka in Vicky’s vanity van. Anil also praised Vicky as a “brilliant guy” and mentioned that they later sobered up with lemons after enjoying some vodka.
During an interview with Siddharth Kannan he said, “I remember doing a scene with Vicky. We had to prepare for it. He took us to his vanity and we went a little method there and we drank a little. Vicky helped us a lot and sailed us through that important scene,”. He added that nil said that they had only one drink and added that Vicky was “almost flying”.
He further explained, “The kind of acting we were doing, it wasn’t really method. But it worked for the scene, I guess.” Anil emphasized that Vicky had to portray aggression in that particular scene, and he executed it “beautifully.” When questioned about whether others on the set were aware of their inebriation, Anil revealed that Shah Rukh Khan was informed about it. After completing the scene, they took lemons to sober up.
In an earlier chat on Dunki on Red Chillies Entertainment’s YouTube channel, Shah Rukh also spoke about this particular scene and said, “Main aise hi impress ho raha tha ke achi acting kar raha hai (I was impressed thinking that he is a good actor).” He also mentioned that Vicky Kaushal aced this scene in the film and shared, “Isne ye scene bahut khoobsurat kiya (He performed this scene beautifully), fantastically performed.”
