Would love to work with Kapil one day: Riteish

Riteish Deshmukh has started shooting for ‘Bank Chor’ which sees him as a common man who turns into a bank robber, a role which was initially to be played by stand-up comedian Kapil Sharma. He says he is a huge fan of the latter and would love to work with him one day.

"I am Kapil's huge fan. Things didn't work out for him and I got the role. I am really happy to be doing this film. In future, if I get a chance to work with him, I will be really happy," the 35-year-old said in Mumbai. A set of a bank has been set up at Mehboob Studio where a large portion of the film will be shot.

A common man, Riteish's character is stuck in the rigmarole of life and the only way out for him is robbing a bank.
Talking about his character, Riteish said, "I am playing a common man whose situation gets difficult when he in unable to return a loan that he took from a bank. Then he decides to rob the bank to get rid of his problems. He is a god-fearing, Maharashtrian man."

Yash Raj Films' production, ‘Bank Chor’ is being directed by Bumpy and is slated for a March release next year. It also stars Vivek Oberoi and Rhea Chakraborty.
