Sonam had joined Anil at the Malang screening on Thursday. She wore a black corset dress and posed with Anil for the paparazzi. Anil plays a police officer in the suspense thriller. Talking about his character, he had told IANS in an interview, “When this role (in ‘Malang’) was offered to me, first I said ‘let me not do this role because I have already played a cop’. There is a tendency of people saying that ‘You are playing a cop again’.” But then he realised that “cop is something that you can play again and again”.

He added, “It is a pretty dark role. I said ‘I have not played such a dark character’. I wanted to be little more fun and watchable also. It’s a commercial film. I have tried to make it as interesting as I could.”
