The actor admits his choices have undergone a shift in the past year, and Ram Madhvani’s directorial venture reflects that. “The lockdown gave me perspective on a lot of things. Because of the pandemic, I got that risk-taking ability. [Now], I want to do different stories. Dhamaka was an opportunity to explore something different. That change and that ability to take risks has come from within. It’s not that I don’t want to do rom-coms. I will do those too, but these are the stories that I am getting attracted to,” says Aaryan, adding that the audience’s palate too has changed in the past one-and-a-half years.
The taut thriller sees Aaryan’s news anchor Arjun Pathak battle between career and conscience as Mumbai is under attack. The Netflix film was shot in a span of 10 to 12 days in late 2020. Aaryan credits Madhvani for pulling off a film in the middle of the pandemic. “Arjun is not a vanilla character. It’s one of my most challenging roles, but it was a cakewalk because of Ram sir. He is a maverick director. The film is also designed differently — it was set in a small room with cameras all around, and I just had to act.”
