EIJAZ KHAN FINDS A ROLE MODEL IN JIMMY SHERGILL
EIJAZ KHAN FINDS A ROLE MODEL IN
JIMMY SHERGILL
Television actor Eijaz Khan and film actor Jimmy Shergill seem to be the best buds in town these days. Both the talented performers will be seen in pivotal roles in upcoming political drama Shorgul and there’s more to this camaraderie than what meets the eye. During an incident on sets, Eijaz Khan was discriminated because of his creed and for not being co-operative enough to participate in a Hindu ceremony for one of the scenes and Jimmy turned a real life hero when he came to Eijaz’s rescue and decided to use a body double for the scene.
Eijaz Khan states, “I’m impressed with Jimmy’s sense of humour and he’s constantly keeping it light on the sets with his funny one liners and pranks. He knows how to convert a negative into a positive. I consider him my older brother now and someday I’d like to be as diverse as he is. He’s always willing to lend a helping hand and stand up for what’s right and in this industry that matters the most.”
A 24 FPS Films Production, the political drama film is based on intolerance and aspires to make audiences contemplate on where humanity stands amidst the noise of religious, social, political and economic prejudice. It is inspired by sensitive real-time incidents that shook the foundation of democracy, set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh. The film will touch upon grave subjects that have transpired in the recent past such as Muzzafarnagar, Godhra, Babri Masjid riots apart from making references to bureaucratic misdoings of some high profile dignitaries. Some of the lead actors in the film will bear resemblance to real life politicians such as Akhilesh Yadav, Sangeet Soam, Azam Khan in their look, mannerisms and even names. Directed by Jitendra Tiwari & P. Singh and produced by Swatantra Vijay Singh & Vyas Verma, the film stars Jimmy Sheirgill, Ashutosh Rana, Sanjay Suri, Narendra Jha, Hiten Tejwani, Eijaz Khan, Suha Gezen, Anirudh Dave, Deepraj Rana
