Dalip Tahil, who is not only known for his stellar performances in films but also theatre, will be seen as the main antagonist in Toolsidas Junior. The prolific actor, who has also sung and acted in a Broadway play titled – Bombay Dreams, is essaying an expert in the game of snooker in the film and the suave adversary to Toolsidas Junior.
Comments Ashutosh, “Dalip is an actor who has played multiple characters across Films & TV and Stage, especially Broadway – it was great to see him perform in Andrew Llyod Weber’s Bombay Dreams where he sang fabulously! He has done so much good work, and still, I believe he has so much more to give. I am very happy to collaborate with him on Toolsidas Junior!”
