Find out: The research work Riteish Deshmukh went for playing a banjo player

Riteish Deshmukh is been receiving a lot of praises from B-Town people for his new look and body language in the recently released trailer of his upcoming film ‘Banjo‘. The actor, who would be seen playing a street musician in this Ravi Jadhav directorial, says that he has gone through a lot of homework to portray this character, named Taraat.

Recently, at the trailer launch of this movie, the actor said, “A lot of my friends used to play banjo. Whenever there used to be Ganesh festival, we would play and dance. Understanding them or knowing them was not an issue. But we did a lot of homework.”

Following this, the director of ‘Banjo’, Ravi Jadhav also interviewed some Banjo players which also went into the research of Riteish helping him to play the role.

“Ravi had shot many videos with them (Banjo players). He used to mail me. He interviewed many banjo players and used to show me their style. We tried to work hard on it. It was not about visiting a certain place to build a character. We interacted with a lot of banjo players. We had meetings, practice sessions to get the vibe, how the band plays,” added the actor.

‘Banjo’ stars Nargis Fakhri as a DJ from New York, who comes to Mumbai to find local talent. It is slated to release on September 23, 2016.
