Mumbai: Actor Gautam Gulati, who performs a baddie within the Salman Khan-starrer “Radhe”, says he bagged the character on the celebrity’s suggestion.
The actor claims he met Salman, who expressed a need to work with him, and obtained a name from the staff of the movie the following day.
“This would not have been possible if Salman sir was not there. We met randomly and he hugged me and he thought we should work together, he asked me if I would play a negative role. I could not believe it. I told him that all my favourite heroes are the negative ones and the very next day, his team called me and it was done,” he says.
He provides that work on his character started quickly after.
“My clothes, look, training all started… the hairstyle was changed and the shoot commenced. I will never forget this. He has always been very helpful. It feels amazing when a top megastar is there to help me, and believes in me,” Gautam says.
The actor performed the role of Girgit within the movie that launched not too long ago.
