While talking to a tabloid, Arushi revealed that acting was never on the cards for her. Arushi, who is from Himachal Pradesh said that there was no active theatre scene there. It was only when Imtiaz Ali was in her college in Shimla to do a recee for Tamasha did she audition for the part of Sanjukta. Arushi, who studied engineering, said that she became popular in college after she worked with Ranbir Kapoor.

After her first stint as an actor, Arushi started sending out her performance tapes to casting directors. In February last year, she got a call from Mukesh Chhabra's office. She auditioned for the role and within 15 days was on board for the film.

Apparently, Excel’s excursion to Dawood’s territory began shooting before the pandemic. No information is available on its progress. I asked the author Hussain Zaidi and he said he had no idea of the progress on the project. Says Ram Gopal Varma, “I honestly don’t know what they are making.

Also the subject matter of my series D Company is in the public domain. It’s the understanding and interpretation which will differ. Anyway may the best man win.” Incidentally these are not the only cinematic efforts on Dawood. Nikhil Advani made D Day whe...
