Dhurandhar's Rakesh Bedi rejects comparison with Pak politician: I love you, Nabil

Pakistani politician Nabil Gabol had expressed his disappointment over his alleged fictionalised portrayal in director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar: The Revenge. Actor Rakesh Bedi, who plays Jameel Jamali in the film, humorously responded to Gabol.

Bedi, in an interview with The Lallantop, mentioned that there is no similarity between him and Gabol, apart from the fact that both look alike.

He said, "I would like to say, I love you, Nabil Gabol. I love you very much, and it’s a coincidence that I resemble you a little bit. But I can’t help



it."

While speaking about the resemblance, the actor added, "Neither your father came to India, nor my father went to Pakistan. But aside from our looks, we look alike; we have a slight heaviness in our bodies, which makes us look alike. I even wore similar clothes in the film, so we looked alike. Other than that there is no similarity between me and him."

He firmly dismissed the claim that the character was based on the politician. "My character is not based on Nabil Gabol. Jameel Jamali is inspired by many such politicians in Pakistan," Bedi concluded.
