Joker for a folio
Actor Arun Mandola who is currently seen as Laxman in Vighnaharta Ganesh recently took his fans by surprise when he shot as the Joker. The actor dressed up as Joker, the Joaquin Phoenix’s version, as part of his new folio. “As an actor, I want to do some unique roles in my life. I believe in quality, not quantity. I feel there is something inside me that is very curious. I was very impressed when I saw The Joker teaser a year ago and at that time, I decided to do this shoot. It was extremely tough to do this shoot.”
The actor is clearly a big fan of the film. Speaking about the movie, Arun says, “The story is about a person who can’t handle society pressure and becomes a psychopath. The subject was sensitive and unveiled many social truths. This is the reason that I chose to do this sensitive subject. It was my first experiment to make my folio different from the other photographers and other actors because I am bored of doing the same type of makeup, pictures, styling, expressions and so I choose my looks very carefully.”
