Deepak Dobriyal in a still from Tanu Weds Manu Returns.
Kangana Ranaut and R Madhavan are being lauded for their performance in
Tanu Weds Manu Returns. But one person who has made an unforgettable mark with his acting in the entertainer is Deepak Dobriyal, and he feels the series has "changed his life".
As the simpleton and affable Pappi
ji, Deepak's comic timing has won the audience's heart.
"People have shown me so much love, which I never expected. So I am happy," said Deepak, who has earlier been part of movies like
Omkara and
Not a Love Story. The actor feels the
Tanu Weds Manu franchise has established him as a character actor, marked for his comic avatar.
"My role wasn't as challenging as I had done the ground work in the last part. All I needed to do was carry my character and I did it," the
Omkara actor said.
The
Gulaal actor will be seen in a whole new avatar in upcoming film
Prem Ratan Dhan Payo.
