Back then in Hindi films, there used to be some foreigners living in Mumbai, who used to play the roles of Britishers all the time in Indian films. But now, every filmmaker is looking forward for authentic-looking actors, so is Surender Reddy who helmed Sye Raa with a terrific self-confidence.
We hear that picking up actors to play various roles of East India Company officials is no easy task. Especially there are seven major characters of various officers who played a major role in Uyyalwada Narasimha Reddy’s life. To pick these actors, the makers of Sye Raa went to London for a month and auditioned almost 100 actors.
To get the British accent perfectly and even to create the look-feel of the character effortlessly, Surender Reddy is said to have decided to use real Britishers for those roles. It’s not only expensive, but also a hard job to bring all of them to India and then to Georgia for shoots.
Director Surender Reddy is hopeful that all this hard work will be paid off on October 2nd as Sye Raa hits theatres.
