Ameesha Patel turns into a baddie for her forthcoming film Shortcut Romeo and asserts it was challenging for her to play an anti-hero role as it has drained her emotionally and physically.
‘Anti-hero role is always challenging. Like Shah Rukh Khan’s role in Baazigar and Darr. Whenever you break a norm to do something, it is always challenging,’ Ameesha said here Thursday in an interview. ‘To not do a typical heroine, to look sophisticated rich woman and beautiful despite being in a negative role is a tough job because you might cross the line and look like a vamp.
‘So, it was a physically and emotionally tiring film for me to do because of the dangerous dialogues, looks, manipulative eyes- all this I haven’t done before,’ added the 38-year-old.
Shortcut Romeo also stars Puja Gupta and hits theatres 21 June.
