Source:: Filmicafe Both Farhan and Hrithik have recently played or are playing dysfunctional and largely introvert characters. While Farhan voluntarily went into a shell to play the loner Karthik in his latest release Karthik Calling Karthik, Hrithik has been undergoing his own share of solitude as the paraplegic in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s forthcoming Guzaarish. However, both will now get into more gregarious territory with Zoya Akhtar’s, Running With The Bulls. Incidentally, the film is about male bonding, a similar subject to Farhan’s directorial debut Dil Chahta Hai in 2001. Commenting on the film, Farhan says, “It is in my destiny as a filmmaker and actor to keep returning to films about male bonding. For Karthik Calling Karthik, I was shut off from the outside world as far possible for me - I do have responsibilities beyond an actor, you know. Karthik has been my toughest role so far, not only in terms of the character’s solitude but also because this was my first solo hero film. It exhausted me emotionally. So yes, Zoya’s film, which is a fun-filled, male bonding road story, is just the excuse I needed to get out of the feeling of desolation.” Farhan and Hrithik intend to whoop it up, before they face the camera for Zoya. “Hrithik and I are buddies but we have not hung out for a while. Actually, Abhay Deol is the part of the threesome I need to get to know well. We will be doing our share of bonding before we head to Spain for the shoot,” adds Farhan. Farhan remembers how Saif Ali Khan and Akshaye Khanna needed to get similarly comfortable with each other during Dil Chahta Hai. Incidentally, this isn’t Farhan’s first trip to Spain. Farhan says, “That was not as an actor and definitely not to the places where Zoya will shoot with us. And certainly not to do the things we three guys will be doing for the film.” The shoot of Running With The Bulls starts in April. Thereafter, Farhan gets back to direction with Don 2, for which shooting starts in September.
