Going to enter scariest territory as an actor in 'Takht': Vicky Kaushal

Actor Vicky Kaushal says it is "surreal" to be a part of Karan Johar's "Takht", a film which will require him to tread one of the "scariest territories" as a performer.

Directed by Johar, "Takht" is based in the Mughal era and chronicles the story of two warring brothers.

"'Takht' is one of the scariest territories I am going to enter as an actor. I can't give out the details but for sure, it's going to be something. I am filled with excitement and anxiety. It's a good space as an actor. I am really anxious about what I'm getting into," Vicky told PTI.

The actor recalls the time he got a confirmation call for the magnum opus while he was shooting for "Uri" in Serbia and "flipped" when he heard the good news.

"To see your name on a Karan Johar poster is as dreamy as his films. It took me some time to let it sink in that I'm one of the leads in a Karan Johar film. It is one of his biggest films ever so it feels surreal, overwhelming."
