Pulkit Samrat: Tough to Match Riteish Deshmukh's Comic Timing

Mumbai: Comedy is often considered the toughest genre for actors, and for actor Pulkit Samrat, the act became tougher when he had to match the comic timing of actor Riteish Deshmukh.

The two actors feature together in Bangistan, which is directed by Karan Anshuman.

Talking about his co-star Riteish, Pulkit told IANS, "Bangistan is a film which is closest to my heart. We have shot the entire film and it was a great experience working with Riteish. He is known for his comic timing and it was very difficult to match up to his talent."

Pulkit describes the film as a satire rather than a "complete comedy film". "It's light-hearted," he said of the project, which also features actor Chandan Roy Sanyal.

Meanwhile, Pulkit is busy promoting his upcoming film Dolly Ki Doli. He plays a Haryanvi policeman in the movie, which also stars actors Sonam Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao.

"It was fun doing this film. Arbaaz (Khan) is one of the best producers I have worked with. He used to pamper us a lot on the sets," he said.
