Anjum Batra, the actor who’s captivating audiences with his nuanced performances, is making waves across platforms. From stealing scenes in ‘Amar Singh Chamkila’ to headlining ‘Mamla Legal Hai-2’, his trajectory is one to watch.
His tryst with cinema began early, featuring in Anurag Kashyap’s gritty ‘Dev D’. Recently, he dished on his experiences working under the guidance of Kashyap and Imtiaz Ali, directors known for their distinct styles.
“Yes, their working styles are worlds apart,” he admitted in a candid interview, “yet they share a rare talent: unlocking peak potential from every performer on set. It’s magical.”
When quizzed about genre-hopping, Anjum was philosophical. “I let life take its course. Diverse roles appeal to me, but quality projects naturally attract more doors opening.”
Exciting updates from his slate include completing ‘Ishqnaam’, a Punjabi outing slated for imminent release. “Other talks are in motion too,” he teased. “Dive into ‘Mamla Legal Hai-2’—your support fuels me!”
On challenges faced, he reframed them positively: “No regrets over choices made; this was my calling. Hindsight shows improvements possible in past work, but that’s the beauty of learning on the job. We progress with time.”
Joining Anjum are heavyweights like Ravi Kishan, Nidhi Bisht, Naina Grewal, and Anant Joshi, elevating the series to binge-worthy status.
