We were trained to be lethal, stealthy, trained to fight which helped us get into the skin of our characters."Mentally, the actor did a lot of preparation to be in the skin of the character."I have a lot of friends from an Army background, a lot of friends in the Army now. I've spoken to them at length about the stories of the Kargil war to help me build a world inside my head. What really helped us was interacting and hanging out with jawans on set and hearing their stories, their experiences, and just how they are as people. The two high-ranking Army officers were on the set to guide us. They were extremely helpful and insightful which in turn helped us build our body language, psyche, and characters," he said.As Pranay plays the role of the most crucial frontline warrior of Captain Vikram Batra, played by Siddharth Malhotra, the actors shared a bond on the sets of the film.Talking about his co-actor Siddharth, Pranay told , "He was extremely professional and we all bonded like school kids, pulling each other's leg, sharing stories, laughing at the silliest of jokes but it all resulted in an amazing camaraderie on set.

We all spent two months in Kargil shooting and by the end of it we were all buddies."Pranay has interesting projects in his kitty like 'Crash Course', 'Kingmaker' and 'Guilty Minds'.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
