Rajesh Khanna's best friend Bhupesh Raseen is smiling from ear to ear. Raseen has bagged a plump role in a Hindi film titled 'Tigers of Rajasthan'.
Arvind Kumar is playing the male lead, while Raseen will be seen in a very negative role. Says Raseen, rather excitedly, ''I am the villain in the film."
Popular TV actress Devoleena Bhattacharjee, yesteryears' famous villain Ranjeet and Upasana Singh are also playing significant roles in 'Tiger of Rajasthan'. The film also stars Raju Shrestha, Deepshikha Nagpal and Jasmin Kumar.
Buzz is, the film is inspired by a real story. "The story is dramatic, but with a strong family bond," says Raseen.
The shoot is in progress in and around Jaipur from November 4. "It has been a long schedule but worth it," says a source.
'Tigers of Rajasthan' is not Raseen's first tryst in front of the camera. He reveals, "I have done a film 'Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai' but I have a cameo in it. 'Tigers of Rajasthan' will see me in a full-length role. I shot for it about 12 days."
