Hunter 2: Suniel Shetty says father’s love drives his new season performance
Suniel Shetty says his character Santha in Hunter 2 is more intense and emotionally driven, focusing on a father’s desperate mission to find his daughter, unlike the carefree version in season one.
Mumbai: Actor Suniel Shetty has opened up about his conscious effort to bring extra depth to his character in Hunter 2.
Returning as Santha in the second season, the actor shared that he approached the role with a fresh perspective, making deliberate changes to his body language, emotions, and overall portrayal.
When asked if there’s a conscious effort to bring something extra or different in a second season of the same series, Suniel told IANS that as an actor, he approached Hunter 2 with a fresh mindset.
He said that everything about his character — body language, appearance and emotions — has evolved.
This time, the story is driven by a father’s desperate mission to find his daughter, bringing a deeper emotional core to the role.
The Dhadkan actor shared, “I am very different in this season. The body language is different. The look is different. The emotions are different. Carefree and careless, Santha was in the first. Here it is more about family. And that is his only objective. There is no disturbance, but no other distraction in his life. He wants his daughter back and at any cost. He will go to any lengths to get that happening. So, I think that itself is a beautiful moment. Like any father, my obsession is Tia Nahan, and I don’t think beyond. And that is the kind of father he is in this. And if I have done justice from that point of view of being able to bring out the emotion of a real father in it. I think I would have done justice to my role.”
Directed by Prince Dhiman and Alok Batra, Hunter Season 2 also stars Jackie Shroff, Anusha Dandekar and Barkha Bisht in crucial roles. The series premiered for free on July 24 on Amazon MX Player.
