Mumbai, Dec 4 (IANS) Actor Gulshan Devaiah, who is teaming up with Manoj Bajpayee for the first time in “Hinterland”, says he admires the way the senior actor lends authenticity to any character he plays.
“When I heard the script, I loved it and found it really interesting as well as challenging at the same time. It’s going to be an exciting journey shooting for the same. I play the brother to Manoj’s character in the film.

Produced by Honey Trehan and Abhishek Chaubey, who have assisted National Award-winning filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj in the past, “Hinterland” will go on floors next year.
