Actress Huma Qureshi, who will be seen sharing screen space with Hugh Bonneville in Gurinder Chadha’s British-Indian historical drama film Viceroy’s House, says the British star is “deeply interested in India and Indian politics”. “Hugh is wonderful and of course, he is very talented. At the same time, he is very intelligent,” says Huma.
The 29-year-old actress also said Bonneville — popular for playing Robert Grantham in TV drama Downton Abbey — was lovely to work with. “Hugh was very lovely to work with and I had a lot of fun with the international cast,” adds Huma. Chadha’s directorial Viceroy’s House is about the inside life of the Viceroy’s House in 1947 during the Partition of India. Huma feels the youth will connect with the film. “I think that today’s youth is very politically aware,” Huma says. —IANS
