Emraan Hashmi opens up about Azhar at the trailer launch

Actor Emraan Hashmi who will be next seen in the biopic of ace cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin states that he felt a great sense of responsibility to portray the character on screen. At a recently held launch of the film Azhar’s trailer, Emraan opened up about the biopic and also about learning cricket from Azharuddin.

Emraan said, "It was a huge responsibility for me to portray Azhar in the film. I am waiting to show the first copy to Azhar soon as his appreciation matters a lot to me. If he will like the film, our hard work will pay off. I spend so much time with him.”

He further added that He is a very frank and sensitive person. He trained me so hard that I had to ice my wrists. I am not a good cricketer in real life so it was a challenge for me but I did it eventually. We shot in London and Hyderabad. I was very nervous but I had to note very minute things like the Hyderabad accent."
