Sardar Udham: Vicky Kaushal shares the back story on his facial scar; reveals he had to undergo different looks

The much-awaited trailer of Sardar Udham starring Vicky Kaushal has finally hit the internet today, on September 30. Going by the netizens response, they seemed to be impressed with Vicky’s intense looks in the film. From his turban look to Vicky’s suave look in suits and jackets, the actor looks quite promising as Sardar Udham Singh. However, earlier, when Vicky’s look from the film was released, there was a scar on his face that many believed it was a part of the character. Well, talking about the same, in the trailer launch of Sardar Udham, Vicky Kaushal revealed his back story on his facial scar.

During the media interaction, he happened to share that the scar on his cheek was not a part of the film, in fact, he was injured on another movie set and not on the sets of Shoojit Sircar’s venture. He was heard saying, “I didn’t get injured on this film, I injured myself on another film which I was shooting 4 days before this film and I got thirteen stitches on my cheek. The first person I sent my picture was Shoojit da because in 4 days he was planning for Sardar Udham. He said ‘koi baat nahi, tu stitches leke aaja, Sardar Udham ko stitches aajayenge’ So, the scar you see on my face in Sardar Udham is that the scar is real and I actually had big stitches on my face. That’s how I incorporated it.”

He spoke about the different looks that he had to undergo during the shoot of the film. The Sanju actor continued, “Yes, there are different looks in the film, unki bohot identities thi, he kept changing his name and his passports, he kept travelling across the globe to reach London. Toh usme kahi baar vajan ghatana tha badhana tha, played different age groups from 19 to 40.”
