Hotel Mumbai: Dev Patel Reveals It Was A Traumatic Experience To Shoot A Movie On 26/11’s Terror Attack

Starring Dev Patel and Anupam Kher, Hotel Mumbai has created a decent buzz around itself. While the film is an adaptation of a terror attack that shook the nation and brought Mumbai to a standstill, Dev Patel revealed how traumatic it was to enact it.

Dev Patel, who is awaiting the release of the film Hotel Mumbai in India, says it was a traumatic experience to shoot for the movie based on the 26/11 terrorist attacks in Mumbai.

“For us, we lived in the siege for 3 months and every time we see a hotel entry and exit; it takes us back to the series of events. It was traumatizing. But as an artist, you invest wholeheartedly in these characters. You give a part of yourself in these roles. I hope that when people watch me on screen, they are able to see the emotional investment and a lot of heart that went behind the film,” Dev said.
