Darshan sought psychologist s help for Mirza Juuliet role

Mumbai March 24 (IANS) Actor Darshan Kumar whose next release is Mirza Juuliet says he needed to speak to a psychologist to get into the mind of his character in the movie.

Talking about it he said in a statement: Mirza is a complex character he has been through a lot very early in life. He has spent his earlier years of life serving jail term for avenging his parents death. He has killed since but he yearns to live a normal life.

For someone like me it was very difficult to understand how could someone with such a tainted past live a normal life. I actually met a psychologist friend of mine to get my head around the character.

Darshan who is known for starring in Mary Kom added: For me it doesn t matter if I am merely standing in the frame I need to be in character and I need to become the character.

I have to give it my all. And for someone like Mirza I owed it to him to do justice to his character.

Mirza Juuliet stars Pia Bajpai Chandan Roy Sanyal and Priyanshu Chatterjee. Directed by Sunil Dharshan the film is releasing on April 7.
