Mumbai, Feb 7 (NationPress) As “The Mehta Boys” celebrated its first anniversary since release, actor Avinash Tiwary took a moment to reflect on the film’s journey and the invaluable advice imparted by esteemed actor-director Boman Irani.
In discussing his experience on the film, Tiwary expressed, “It’s been a year since The Mehta Boys released, and I still feel a profound connection to this film. From the moment the narrative reached me, I was drawn to its authenticity and emotional richness.”
“The character of Amay resonated as real, flawed, vulnerable, and human, making it impossible to decline the role. I thought to myself, ‘If you truly consider yourself an artist, you cannot let this opportunity pass,’ and I eagerly accepted it.”
Working alongside Boman Irani was a significant experience for Avinash.
“As a director and actor, he was a delight and continuously encouraged me to delve deeper. He would say, ‘Arre, dhai actor nahi hai tere jaise. Avinash, just go for it!’ That perspective shift was transformative, granting me the freedom to experiment without hesitation.”
“What truly sets the film apart is that it transcends a mere father-son narrative; it encapsulates every relationship influenced by ego, silence, and miscommunication.”
The actor expressed gratitude to viewers who connected with the film, sharing, “The feedback on how profoundly it resonated with them means the world to me.”
The Mehta Boys explores a troubled father-son dynamic and features Irani, Avinash Tiwary, and Shreya Chaudhry in pivotal roles.
