It will take people several lifetimes to achieve what Dhanush has in one. After making waves with his latest performance in Aanand L Rai’s Atrangi Re, the actor-director-singer-writer-producer has set his eyes on his upcoming Hollywood project The Gray Man. He made his international debut with Ken Scott’s French adventure comedy The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir, but the film didn’t garner the expected reaction. Directed by the Russo brothers, The Gray Man is based on the 2009 novel of the same name by Mark Greaney, and is Dhanush’s second Hollywood outing. “It is a great opportunity. I hope to capitalise it,” says the actor, who will be playing a small but pivotal part in the Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans-starrer.
