Difficult to accept Jackie Chan in negative role: Sonu Sood

Sonu says language wasn’t a barrier working with Chan as most of his “dialogues were in English” in Kung Fu Yoga.

Sonu Sood says it will be difficult to accept his Kung Fu Yoga co-star Jackie Chan as an antagonist because he is very cute. “We have always seen Jackie Chan play the good guy. He is a great actor and I am sure he will play the role of the antagonist with full conviction. But, he is so cute that it is difficult for us to accept him in a negative role,” Sonu said in a statement.

Sonu Sood and Jackie Chan worked together in Kung Fu Yoga.

Sonu otherwise believes that Chan can play any part. “Kung Fu Yoga was a great experience, especially working with Jackie Chan, whose films I have grown up watching. He is a very humble guy and focused. Working with him was a life changing experience for me,” he said.

Sonu says language wasn’t a barrier working with Chan as most of his “dialogues were in English” in Kung Fu Yoga, to be aired on And pictures on Friday. He says Chan was impressed by his diet. “Both Jackie Chan and me are into fitness but I keep a strong check on my diet which impressed Jackie. He said, ‘After seeing you, I realized that Indians are so fit and very particular about their diet. After meeting you, my whole perception towards Indian fitness has changed’,” he said.
