"It is amazing. This film 'Force 2' took year in the making. There was a little bit of pressure because there was an expectation based on my first film, but I really have been ecstatic with all the critical and audience's feedback that has been coming in," Tahir told IANS over phone from Mumbai.
The actor, who made his debut with actress Rani Mukerji in the 2014 film "Mardaani", added that "every one has liked that fact that it was a grey character and as anti-hero it stood out and people loved it."
Released on November 18, "Force 2" also stars Sonakshi Sinha and John Abraham.
"Force 2", which is the second instalment of the "Force" franchise, has been directed by Abhinay Deo.
The film is based on the intention of one man who wants to kill agents of India's intelligence agency - the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW).
