Mardaani 2 actor Vishal Jethwa is set to feature in the upcoming spy thriller, IB 71, for which he worked on the dialect, and shot in extreme conditions. Talking about playing a hijacker who hijacked Fokker F27 in 1971, he says, “I knew that this role was going to be challenging, and I didn’t want to leave any stone unturned. I spent months working on getting the dialect right and understanding the nuances of my character. The extreme conditions and amazing team of IB 71 helped me push myself to give my best every single day.”
