If preview reports are to be believed, in Asoka, it is model-turned-actor Rahul Dev who's stolen the thunder as the treacherous commander of the Magadh Empire. And stealing the thunder right from under the noses of seasoned actors seems to be old-hat for Rahul. For isn't it true that inChampion, he stole the limelight from Sunny Deol?
It seems that even in Asoka his character and Rahul's portrayal have such a cinematic impact that he will be recognized as an actor to reckon with after the film releases. Meanwhile, it is Rahul who trained Shah Rukh Khan when he wanted to put-on muscles for his role as Asoka The Great. Rahul is a busy actor today, and is also doing another project Supari for Padam Kumar besides other films.
