“Hero Or Villain? Well, You Can’t Guess”: Tanuj Virwani On Turning Grey For Poison

From playing a businessman in One Night Stand with Sunny Leone to stepping into the shoes of a swashbuckling cricketer in Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s The Inside Edge, Tanu Virwani has been happy to play a character with grey shades. For someone whose very personality is confidence personified, Tanuj Virwani has been finding a good direction in his acting career, what with Poison being his latest offering.

“The thing is that I am very happy being in front of the camera. It doesn’t matter what kind of characterization it is, whether it is black, white or grey. As for Poison, which is a revenge drama, I am not really being a bad boy here. In The Inside Edge, I was still being a perennial bad boy but in Poison, you can’t guess whether he is hero or a villain.”

Poison is set around the drug mafia in Goa and its promo has made quite a good impression already. As for Tanuj, he has caught everyone’s attention all over again with his body language and dialogue delivery.

“The part that I am playing in Poison is a lot edgy. He is not someone who is bound by any morality. It’s a very interesting part as at the end of the day, one could be heroic by being a hero or a villain. The fact is that you cannot slot people. As is the saying, the whole may not be a sum of parts. That’s the reason why I don’t look at a hero or a villain tag in the parts that I play. I just put in my best when I step into the shoes of a character.”
