바카라˜CAT바카라™ on Netflix has been garnering a lot of views. The show has become a blockbuster hit on the OTT platform. Here are a few things that you didn바카라™t know about the show starring Randeep Hooda and Hasleen Kaur.
Ever since Netflix바카라™s crime thriller series 바카라˜CAT바카라™, starring Randeep Hooda and Hasleen Kaur, hit the streaming platform, it has garnered immense attention from critics and audiences alike. From the performances to the cinematography, direction, costumes, storytelling and more, everything about the series has been applauded. But behind a show바카라™s success, there are a lot of incidents, moments and memories that help the cast and crew come together and deliver a blockbuster!
And, according to the cast and crew of this series too, the whole process of making the series was a journey replete with many tidbits that propelled 바카라˜CAT바카라™ into the success that it has become today.
Here are 5 things you didn바카라™t know!
Actors are known to immerse themselves in their cast but Randeep Hooda took it to a whole new level. A little birdie told us that Randeep Hooda would ensure that he spoke in Punjabi while filming and even once he was done. He ensured that he interacted with his co-stars as well as locals to pick up on the right accent, find his own way to accentuate it and speak fluently. In fact, even when people around him interacted with him in English or Hindi, the actor never once broke character and continued to respond only in Punjabi. If that바카라™s not dedication, we don바카라™t know what is!
Hasleen Kaur has been immensely commended for her role as a fierce cop called Babita on the series. To say that she nailed the character is an understatement. But every story has its own starting point. Hasleen Kaur바카라™s started out with a suggestion from Randeep Hooda. Seemingly, the first time they shot together, Hasleen Kaur came on to the set in her complete get-up - a policeperson바카라™s costume with trousers, shirt, cap et al. But what wasn바카라™t part of the costume but came with Hasleen Kaur was her lip gloss. Upon seeing that, Randeep Hooda asked her to take it off, schooling her on how real cops do not have the time for make-up and that their characters should look as authentic as they can.
To make the series as authentic as possible and portray Punjab in the most real way, creator-director Balwinder Singh Janjua actually took the cast and crew travelling across and into the hinterlands of Punjab. Not a single scene of the series was shot on a made-up set. In fact, as the storyline progresses, the filmmaker ensured that every location looked genuine. In doing this, they shot in over 80+ locations across Punjab.
It바카라™s difficult to imagine the stunning Miss India-Earth, Hasleen Kaur, to be anything less than glitzy, glam and drop-dead gorgeous. But beautiful as she is, the actor was required to completely glam down for her role as a cop in the series. And, of course, she nailed it because she was simply unrecognisable in her costume and her demeanour. She owned the character so well, she not only started acting like a cop but people around her actually believed she was one.
Every actor has a process, using which they can better relate to a character and slip in and out to portray them. Randeep Hooda had a process too and that was imagining himself and his brother in place of reel characters, Gurnaam and his younger sibling.
For the unversed, the plot of 바카라˜CAT바카라™ follows the journey of a police informant, also known as CAT, Gurnaam Singh as he gets plunged into the underbelly of crime, and corruption while trying to save his brother바카라™s life. 바카라˜CAT바카라™ is currently streaming on Netflix.
