The Real “Dhurandhar” | Rakesh Bedi on Ranveer Singh & Aditya Dhar more
Did Rakesh Bedi know the climax even before Dhurandhar shot? In this episode, we sit down with Rakesh Bedi aka Jameel Mamu, the man behind one of the most unexpected and talked about characters from Dhurandhar. For the first time, he breaks down what really went into building Jameel Jamali beyond what you saw on screen. We talk about how the character was shaped, from the accent to the attitude, and how much of it actually came from the script versus what was created in the moment. The conversation also dives into the reality of acting, how small decisions turn into iconic moments, and what really happens behind the scenes on a film set. We also explore his experience working with Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singh, the difference between theatre and screen acting, and what it really takes to stay relevant as an actor over the years. Highlights from the podcast: • Did Rakesh Bedi know about the climax twist beforehand? • How was Jameel Jamali actually built as a character? • Were those iconic dialogues scripted or improvised? • What really happens behind the scenes on a film set? • What was it like working with Ranveer Singh? • Theatre vs films, what actually changes for an actor? • What do most young actors get wrong about acting? If you’ve watched Dhurandhar, this will change how you see Jameel Jamali. And if you’re curious about acting, storytelling, or what really goes into a performance, this conversation gives you a different perspective.
