Renowned thespian Prithviraj Sukumaran harbored initial reservations about his suitability for the cinematic venture Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. However, in a surprising turn, he revealed that it was the persuasive prowess of director Prashanth Neel that dissuaded him from declining the project. Prithviraj assumes the mantle of a beguiling antagonist within the cinematic narrative.

During a recent dialogue with a press syndicate, Prithviraj recounted an encounter during the climax filming of Salaar, wherein he engaged Prashanth in discourse regarding an enthralling screenplay presented by filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar. Despite being extended a role, Prithviraj’s hesitance stemmed from scheduling conflicts.

Following an approximately 20-minute deliberation concerning the film’s thematic essence and narrative structure with Prashanth, Prithviraj experienced a revelation about his eagerness to partake in the venture. Reflecting on the exchange, Prithviraj recalled Prashanth’s sagacious counsel, “Considering your disposition, relinquishing it entirely would likely precipitate regret.” The thespian further opined that abstaining from involvement in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan would have engendered melancholy within him.

Navigating the concurrent involvement in two cinematic endeavors, a practice seldom observed within the Malayalam film domain, presented a formidable challenge for Prithviraj. He accentuated the prevailing norm, wherein actors typically devote themselves exclusively to a singular project until its culmination before contemplating engagement in subsequent undertakings.

Fortuitously, circumstances underwent a marginal adjustment, thereby facilitating Prithviraj’s participation in the cinematic enterprise. Exuding contentment over seizing the opportunity, Prithviraj underscored the collaborative synergy instrumental in his integration into the project.

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, under the directorial helm of Ali Abbas Zafar, boasts an ensemble cast comprising luminaries such as Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Alaya F, Sonakshi Sinha, and Manushi Chhillar. Produced by Vashu Bhagnani, Deepshikha Deshmukh, Jackky Bhagnani, Himanshu Kishan Mehra, and Ali Abbas Zafar, this action-thriller is slated for silver screen debut on April 10th.
