Q. Did you approach Ghoomer as a sports film?
Definitely not! But I do feel sports are a lot like life—you play constantly, sometimes defensively, sometimes in attack mode, and you is about believing in yourself. My character, Padam Singh Sodhi, has many layers. As a coach, he wields an iron cane, but as a person, there is an emotional arc. It was a very exciting role, and the icing on the cake was being directed by R. Balki.
