Vineet Kumar Singh has been impressing the critics ever since his break out role in Gangs of Wasseypur. This year, he had delivered two incredible performances back to back. Vineet had played the lead role of a boxer from UP in Anurag Kashyap's Mukkabaaz. His physical transformation and his performance won him a lot of plaudits. Vineet's brief role as the hockey player, Imtiaz Ali Shah, in Akshay Kumar's Gold is one of the best things in the film.

Now the actor is all set to play the lead in the interestingly titled Aadhaar. The movie is helmed by National award-winning Bengali film-maker Suman Ghosh and is produced by Manish Mundra of Masaan and Aankhon Dekhi fame. Recently, the writer got an opportunity to talk to Vineet about the movie.

Speaking about the film, Vineet revealed, "My next film is Aadhaar. It is produced by Manish Mundra and is directed by Suman Ghosh. Aadhar has a beautiful script and as the title goes, has a connection with the Aadhar card process. We had gone to Jharkhand and met many people to get the facts and the feel right. (I) got to meet the people in the interiors and learn a lot of things about their lifestyle including how some of them have not even left their villages for years. It was a different experience for me." Vineet also added that he will talk more about the film when it starts rolling.

Considering the theme of the film has been the subject of many debates in recent times, doesn't Vineet feel that his movie will be under scrutiny? He replies, "Don't know (about the controversy). The script is really good and there are a lot of things in Aadhaar that deals with day to day real situations and experiences. We are not making the movie with any controversy in mind."

Let's hope that the film doesn't attract unwanted scrutiny just for the title. Aadhaar is touted to tell the story of the first man in the country to get an Aadhar card.
