He was almost written off as a non-starter star son when Tusshar Kapoor bounced back with "Shootout at Lokhandwala", proving that he is, after all, a chip of the old block.
Now the actor is on the lookout for diverse roles that would cater to different sections of the audience.
His character in the forthcoming "Aggar", directed by Anant Mahadevan, is also different. Tusshar plays a troubled man with shades of grey in the Shyam Bajaj
production.
While shooting for the film in Bangkok, Tusshar had a harrowing experience. He was filming a sad song at Pattaya, an area known for its sex workers, when he noticed that
a number of girls (mostly sex workers) began calling out his name loudly.
To top it all, some of the girls were only half dressed and were trying to catch Tusshar's attention.
Tusshar says he found it difficult to shoot the song in such surroundings. His job got particularly tough because he had to look sad and sombre for the song.
The actor says the distraction by sex workers got to such a level that at one point he even considered canceling the shoot for the day. However, he managed to get his focus
back and complete the shooting.
Besides this, Tusshar had other interesting and testing experiences while shooting the film in Thailand.
