Actor-director Ajay Devgn “carefully constructed” different identities for the bad guys who show up in his upcoming film Bholaa in order to leave a mark on the audience, the 53-year-old said in a statement recently.

However, the only character who is “crazier” than the villains in the upcoming action thriller is the protagonist Bholaa, he added.

“I wanted the menace to travel deep. The objective was to carefully construct different identities for the various baddies who show up in Bholaa’s path. In the world of Bholaa, the only one who is crazier than the villains is Bholaa himself,” Ajay said.

The villains in Bholaa are a mixed bunch with dress codes. While the drug cartel has two villains controlling it, the journey further has several inter-state gangs making their appearance. While the biker gangs have stylish hoods, face masks and helmets, there are others who show up in desi attire.

Apart from Devgn, the film also stars Tabu, Deepak Dobriyal, Sanjay Mishra and Gajraj Rao in pivotal roles. Dobriyal plays the role of the main antagonist of the film, while Rao’s character in the film also seems to be a negative one.

Bholaa, set for a March 30 release, is the Hindi adaptation of Lokesh Kanagaraj’s 2019 Tamil film Kaithi.
