Actor Inaamulhaq, who was last seen in Akshay Kumar starrer “Airlift” is all excited to be playing the role of a prisoner turned musician in “Lucknow Central” alongside Farhan Akhtar.
Inaamulhaq played the role of a Iraqi Major Khalaf Bin Zayd in Akshay’s “Airlift”.
“‘Lucknow Central is a real story based on a musical drama in jail. I am part of the band. It’s a musical film so we have workshops which are music related,” Inamhullaq told PTI.
“Farhan is a very talented actor, he is very down to earth. He doesn’t have the aura of being a star. We have a great team in place with actors like Deepak Dobriyal and Rajesh Sharma (of ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’ fame), Gippy Grewal (Punjabi actor-singer), Ronit Roy etc,” he said.
