‘Mardaani 2’ villain Vishal Jethwa on playing loverboy in Arko’s new video

Mumbai, April 7 : He shot to fame playing a vile rapist and killer in the 2019 cop drama "Mardaani 2", and actor Vishal Jethwa is now all set for a romantic makeover.

He plays a loverboy in the music video of Arkos new song, "Dhat".

"When I was approached by Arkoda for his music video, I didnt think twice as he is a very respected singer-songwriter and music composer.I have been a huge fan of his compositions Teri mitti and Nazm nazm," Vishal said.

He added: "When I heard the music, I fell in love with the song, as I found it to be a very sweet and romantic composition."He had another reason for signing up."When I learnt that the concept of the song is retro and the part I was being offered was of a romantic boy, I grabbed it as I have never got the opportunity to play a romantic character on screen.I felt it would be something different and challenging.

I decided to do it as I wanted the audience to see me in a different avatar post Mardaani 2," he said.Vishal is looking for more opportunities to play a romantic hero on screen."I would love to.However, whatever characters I will portray, positive or negative, I would always like to challenge myself to ensure that I do complete justice to the role," he said.
