CHAKRAVYUH is very intense, says Arjun Rampal

Promos of CHAKRAVYUH are on and even though there are close to half a dozen characters occupying the frames, it is apparent that the Prakash Jha film seems to be centered on Arjun Rampal v/s Abhay Deol conflict. Add to that the presence of some heavy weight actors and one does expect some intense encounters in the drama that unfolds.

"In that sense the whole film is very intense," immediately says Arjun, "See, Abhay is an actor who comes with a lot of expertise. His character is much layered and it goes through a huge metamorphosis. I like the way he has come up in his career with such different kind of work which is very different from the rest. As a person he is a very chilled out guy and I had fun working with him."

Elaborating on his other co-stars in the film, Arjun adds, "On the other hand Manoj's (Bajpai) character is very hard hitting. Om's (Puri) part has been woven quite beautifully in the film as well. See, Prakash has a knack of bringing in multiple characters under the same roof and giving them good acknowledgment and wonderful depth. It is no different in CHAKRAVYUH and the whole team has come together beautifully." 

While such statements in a multi starrer setup aren't quite unexpected, one waits to see how Jha, who showed his prowess of handing multiple characters amazingly well in RAJNEETI, gets it right all over again with CHAKRAVYUH, which releases all over on Wednesday, 24th October.
