Renowned Indian actor Bobby Deol is gearing up to continue his streak as a villain, this time alongside Alia Bhatt in an upcoming spy thriller reported by Pinkvilla. Following his recent success in Animal, where he played the antagonist opposite Ranbir Kapoor, Deol is ready to embrace another villainous role in the Yash Raj Film (YRF) Spy Universe.
An inside source revealed that the character is tailor-made for Deol, brimming with charisma and swagger. This marks another significant antagonist portrayal for the actor, known for his impactful performances.
The project, yet to be titled, promises to be groundbreaking with its focus on all-female protagonists in a genre typically dominated by men. Alongside Bhatt and Deol, the film will also feature Sharvari Wagh, a rising talent from YRF.
Deol is slated to embody a menacing presence as he takes on Bhatt and Wagh in the film. With preparations underway, including physical transformations and experimenting with new looks, Deol is poised to deliver his most morally ambiguous performance yet.
Directed by Aditya Chopra, the YRF Spy Universe has garnered immense popularity with previous releases such as Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, and War. Deol, who began his career as a romantic hero, has seamlessly transitioned into portraying compelling villains in films like Badal, Bichhoo, and Love Hostel.
