By Bureau News, Gaea News NetworkThursday, June 11, 2009
An interesting facet of Abhay Deol’s personality has come to fore at the
time when DEV D is celebrating more than 100 days at theaters across the
country. Apparently, Abhay is not just a good actor and a man who has flair
for selecting the best scripts (he has proven this ever since he debuted
with SOCHA NA THA till his recent releases DEV D and OYE LUCKY LUCKY OYE),
he is also an able cartoonist. Though there hasn’t been much noise being
made about this talent of his, friend and director Anurag Kashyap, spill the
beans.

”Abhay draws really well and is excellent when it comes to storyboarding.
Not just is he a good cartoonist; he is also very clear about the
words-to-visuals translation on paper”, reveals Anurag who has been Abhay’s
friend for quite some time now.
The bond started thickening as Abhay started helping out Anurag while he was
making BLACK FRIDAY. ”Not many are aware but Abhay was a very good help in
storyboarding of BLACK FRIDAY. He also drew down the details around the
blast sequences on paper which really helped us during the shoot.”
