Ashutosh's advocate Sitapati Shukla is an upright person and someone who considers the law above everything else. It is the gospel truth for him. He puts up a tooth and nail fight to bring criminals to justice and raises multiple questions about the society at large.
Talking about his character in the film, Ashutosh Rana said, "I play a character called Sitapati Shukla. It's an extremely socially relevant film and I thoroughly enjoyed working on the film as a change maker."
Talking about contrasting character portrayals, the actor added, `It is unfair to compare two films and two roles. An actor's job is to play various roles or else it would become an excruciatingly boring job. It's an interesting observation though- a criminal in Dushman and now a lawyer who protects a victim's interests. You can say that my role in Dushman has allowed me to understand the psyche of such criminals and hence playing a lawyer now which is the opposite end of the spectrum comes from a place of understanding. A good lawyer should have an understanding of the criminal's psyche. Isn't it?`
Chicken Curry Law, directed by Shekhar Sirrin stars Ashutosh Rana, Makarand Deshpande in lead roles. It is being release by Panorama Studios on 9th August.
