The very talented actor Ali Hassan is on cloud nine these days and the reason being him bagging a meaty role. Which project are we talking about? Well, the actor has bagged Raakesh Paswan’s (Village Boy Productions) next offering for television lovers. The story is based on Mahabharata- the one set in modern scenario and Ali will be seen playing the modern day Duryodhan. When contacted the actor he confirmed and said, “I had been waiting to get an opportunity to work with Rakesh Paswan. He is an incredible writer and I am sure he’d do justice to this project.” On him playing Duryodhan he averred, “Most of my characters on TV have been Duryodhan (more of negative characters) types but this one will be special.” The shooting for the same will begin in the first week of October and it will mostly air by end of the same month. We also tried contacting Producer Raakesh Paswan but he remained unavailable for comment. The show most probably is being made for Epic TV. Keep reading this space for more.
