`I am reviving the days of Shashi Kapoor and Govinda who did more than one shift per day. No actor does double shifts any more. I guess I am a unique actor in every sense,` quips Dhulia.
`Yes, I am completely into acting for the next one thing. Though that doesn't make me a complete actor,` quips Dhulia. `I`ll be facing the camera on two mediums cinema and television for the rest of April and half of May.`
While in Nikhil Advani's feature film Hero Dhulia plays a sympathetic character in Endemol's soap about the ups and downs in an influential business family Dhulia is featured in a negative role.
`It's not a routine villain's role. I play a smooth operator,` confides the director who says he is nervous about the impending screen time with the Big B.
`I shot with Bachchan Saab for four days. Now I've to shoot regularly with him for a month. It isn't easy for even veteran actors to face the camera with this legend. So you can imagine my plight,` shudders the director.
No direction for Dhulia until the end of May.
`I start directing Yaara from from June.The main cast is in place now,` says Dhulia.
For a while it seemed Irrfan Khan would not have the dates for Yaara.
`But we've managed to accommodate one another,` says Dhulia.
