Ram Charan Latest Interview The Zanjeer remake is scheduled to hit theatres on May 10. But with all the issues around it, will it keep the deadline? *Hopefully yes. But the scriptwriters of the 1973 film, Salim-Javed, have said they wonât allow the remake to release till they get paid Rs 6crore as compensation. *Yes. This is an issue. Salim Saab and Javed Saab have been in the film industry for a long time and they both know what theyâre doing. The good news is the shooting hasnât stopped. Weâve been filming in Mumbai peacefully, and Iâm sure they will soon sit down with producers Amit Mehra and Reliance Entertainment and resolve the issue. We are on schedule and both the Hindi and Telugu versions will open on the same day. What was your reaction to Lakhiaâs offer to play the iconic Inspector Vijay in his remake? *My first reaction was, âApoorva, are you mad? You want me to step into Amitabh Bachchanâs shoes?â Later, I heard the script and realised it wasnât a Zanjeer remake, but Zanjeer re-imagined. Any actor after hearing the script would have given his nod. Apoorva is a great action director and currently, action fever is on. If this works, will it be adieu to Telugu films? *No way. Telugu films will always come first. Will we see you in a Hindi remake of your recent Telugu film Nayak? *I will never act in a remake of my own film. I want to move on and not revisit the past. Have you seen the original Zanjeer? *Yes, long ago. I remember it brought the âangry young manâ to the Hindi screen, one Amit-ji portrayed so well. Is there any scene in particular that comes to your mind? *When Sher Khan, played by Pran, visits the police station and Amit-ji kicks the chair. Is there a similar scene in the remake? *I donât know if Iâm allowed to reveal any details. Let me just say that a few scenes have been maintained as a tribute to the original film but the rest of the film has its own charm. Bachchan Sr gave you his blessings. Did he also give you any advice on how to portray Inspector Vijay? *Amit-ji met me during the first schedule and told me he was really happy I am playing Inspector Vijay. But he never gives any tips. He likes actors to reprise characters in their own way. Are you an âangry young manâ in real life? *(Smiles) I have a short temper, but itâs not scary. What makes Zanjeer unforgettable for you? *The police uniform makes you feel responsible and patriotic. I would never fool around when in uniform. You have to respect it. Sanjay Dutt, who was to play Sher Khan initially, later dropped out. Next, Arjun Rampal stepped in and walked out with Sanjay eventually returning to the fold. Hasnât all this been unnerving for you? *No. Sanjay Dutt was convinced about the role from day one but it was difficult to work things out logistically. But he was destined to do the role and has taken it to another level. Our scenes are amazing. Thereâs no match for Dutt Saab. Co-star Priyanka Chopra is also now a pop star. Has she been giving you singing lessons? *Priyanka is a really good, professional actress, who complements me on screen. Iâm not a singer, so no lessons. Weâre both struggling with alien tongues: she â with Telugu, and me â with Hindi though I can speak a little in Hindi. Your dad, Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi, is the Union Minister of State (independent charge), Ministry of Tourism. Do you have plans to get into politics as well? *No. No politics for me.
