Zoya Akhtar signs Parmeet Sethi to play villain in ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’

Parmeet Sethi Actor-director Parmeet Sethi has been roped in by filmmaker Zoya Akhtar for her upcoming multi-starrer ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’.

Parmeet will be seen playing the main villain in the film starring Anil Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Farhan Akhtar, Priyanka Chopra, Anushka Sharma and Shefali Shah.

The actor, who was busy with his directorial debut ‘Badmaash Company’, will be seen on-screen after a seven year long hiatus. He was last seen in the short story, Puran Mashi, in Sanjay Gupta’s Dus Kahaniyaan in 2007.

The actor’s wife Archana Puran Singh confirmed the news and said that it will be lovely to see Parmeet on-screen once again. “Yes, my husband is a part of Zoya’s next. He was not worried about the length of the role as it’s such a good offer. It will be lovely to see him back on screen. He had put a brake on his acting career when he started writing his directorial debut Badmaash Company” she said.

Dil Dhadakne Do is about a dysfunctional Punjabi family. The film is produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under the Excel Entertainment banner.

Dil Dhadakne Do is scheduled to hit screens on 5th July 2015.
