Amrita goes for Hindi Medium

Saket Chaudhury’s movie Hindi Medium, which brings Pakistan’s Saba Qamar to Bollywood, recently added Amrita Singh to the cast, which also includes Irrfan Khan. Interestingly, the film is produced by Amrita’s former husband Saif Ali Khan’s former production partner Dinesh Vijan. Yes, do you understand the twist in the tale?

After playing a series of roles as a boisterous Punjabi mother, Amrita plays a completely different role — she’s the antagonist in Hindi Medium. Says the actress, who is currently shooting for the film in Delhi, “All I can say is I am playing someone totally unexpected in this film. Audiences will be shocked.” The actress will also be seen in Mubarakaan playing Anil Kapoor’s sibling!
