While biopics are being made in quite a few numbers, the soon-to-be released Nanak Shah Fakir is one that stands out by quite a margin. This is the first time the story of the founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak, is being attempted to be told on the big screen, however, without a protagonist.
In town on Tuesday, HT City interacted with actor Adil Hussain who spoke about his role in the film and shared a couple of other details as well. “I play the character of Rai Bular, who had great affection for the young Guru Nanak and held him in high esteem. Bular dreams about the birth of Guru Nanak and realises that he (Guru Nanak) is a special person and takes the responsibility to look after his financial needs,” said Hussain whose role is divided in three parts in the film: as a 35-yearold disciple when Guru Nanak was born, a 65-yearold when he goes overseas, and then an 85-year-old when he returns and meets him. After Guru Nanak’s sister, Nanki, Rai Bular was his second disciple.
