Vicky Kaushal revealed he said ‘No’ to Uri
When Vicky Kaushal was approached for Uri, he was shooting for Raazi and essaying the role of a Pakistani major. Hence, when he read the script for the first time, Vicky was unable to develop a connect with the film. The actor said,
Actually, I had almost said no to ‘Uri’. I was shooting for ‘Raazi’ when I got a call from Ronnie Screwvala’s team. I was told they’re sending me an action film script and I’m the first actor they’re approaching, and plan to make the film now. We were shooting an emotional scene in ‘Raazi’, so it was a heavy day. I went back home and I saw the script. Then I wasn’t (thinking like) an actor, I wanted to know what had happened because we had seen it in the news. There was so much technical information involved in the script, the Army, the language. For 14 hours that day I was playing a Pakistani major and then suddenly this was India versus Pakistan and I have to be on the Indian side. There was something I couldn’t connect to.
Vicky kept the script at home and that is when his father & director Sham Kaushal read it. When his father asked Vicky about the script, he said, “I couldn’t enter the zone. It took me a long time as usually, I finish a script in two hours but I took four-and-a-half hours for this one.” His father told him, ‘If you miss doing this film, it’ll be the stupidest decision of your life” Vicky then decided to finish his Raazi schedule and then come back to the script properly.
Then I finished it in one-and-a-half hours and felt I was reading it for the first time. I called RSVP and said I want to do this, please don’t go to any other actor I will do anything for the film
