New Delhi: Actor Meezaan Jafri is all set for the release of his upcoming film, ‘Yaariyan 2’. In the film, Meezaan plays Shikhar Randhawa, a charming hunk who appears to be blunt and has a tough exterior but deep down possesses a tender heart.  

The actor portrays a deeply layered character and speaking about it he said, “I love challenging myself with each film, and when Bhushan ji (producer Bhushan Kumar) offered me Yaariyan 2, I had to be a part of it because of the complexity of the character. I immersed myself completely in playing Shikhar Randhawa. The character was emotionally challenging for me. The love affair of Shikhar was a brainteaser. It took me months to detach myself emotionally from Shikhar.”

He further added,  “I learned to ride a dirt bike for the role, which was another interesting challenge for me. I am glad to be a part of Yaariyan 2. The film was an emotional and physical rollercoaster for me, and I will always hold it close to my heart.” 

Meezaan made his debut with ‘Malaal’, he was then seen in the comedy ‘Hungama 2’, before he signed ‘Yaariyan 2.’
