Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba has been receiving a lot of love ever since it was released. Starring Taapsee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, and Sunny Kaushal in the lead roles, the film captured people's hearts for its gripping storylines, nail-biting suspense, and surprises. In a new interview, Sunny who played a kind but twisted Abhimanyu, revealed that he watched interviews of two of America’s most notorious serial killers Ted Bundy and Jeffery Dahmer to prepare for his role in Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba.
Sunny Kaushal aced the role of Abhimanyu who vies for Rani’s (Taapsee Pannu) attention along with her husband Rishabh (Vikrant Massey) who is living in hiding in Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba. In an interview with PTI, Sunny shared, "I watched a few interviews of Ted Bundy and Dahmer. One common trait (between them) was that they never thought what they were doing was wrong. Abhimanyu briefly was the same."
He further added, “If someone did wrong to him, he would do the wrong too. That’s his justice… His way of saying, ‘You do something wrong to me, I also have the right to do something wrong to you.'"
Sunny also opened up about his working experience with Taapsee and Vikrant in the sequel to Haseen Dillruba. He said that Pannu is like a breeze and they have cracked a great friendship.
Kaushal called Vikrant a beautiful actor and added that he had been following Massey's work even before 12th Fail. The Shiddat actor shared that they had really potent scenes together where they were playing off each other and it was almost like an India-Pakistan match. Sunny was also all praise for Jimmy Shergill, who played a key part in Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba.
Talking more about Jimmy, Sunny called him 'cool' and a 'beautiful actor.' "Vikrant and I were men crushing on Jimmy sir all the time. The first time he walked on set we just looked at him, he was so handsome. He just carried the character of Mrityunjay and he gave it that gravitas," he shared.
