We spoke to Kay Kay Menon about the film and more.

About Drona

This is first film in which first you will be taken to ancient times and then into the modern times. It is full of adventure. It’s not a super hero type film as the film revolves around stories which were shown in famous fairytale books. This film has lots of special effects and I’m sure the film will be liked by audiences.

About his character

My character is called Riz Raizada. He is very egoistic and wants to rule the world by killing innocent people. For this character I have had to work very hard as its not like any role I have done in the past. For this role I have learned sword fighting and horse riding which was really very difficult but I’m thankful to my stunt man Shyam Kaushal who kept his cool and calm while rehearsing. Also how can I forget Abhishek Bachchan who was really very co-operative. I really can’t disclose much about my character but its the most wicked character I have ever played.

Shooting in foreign locales

The experience in Namibia was quite usual and I was quite scared to ride a horse as I have a phobia of getting on a horse. Whenever I had to see the horse I used to run away but now I think I have overcome that phobia. I remember our shooting near Sambhar Lake near Ajmer and that experience was really very good because it was on a horse and we were shooting some 2 hours for the perfect take.

Drona is releasing on October 2nd.
