Mumbai, Dec 1 (IBNS): Acclaimed director, producer and actor Tigmanshu Dhulia, has joined the cast of ZEE5’s upcoming Original, Rangbaaz. Tigmanshu essays the role of Ram Shankar Tiwari, who has an intimidating personality and is a master class politician.

Tigmanshu joins Saqib Saleeb, Ranvir Shorey, Aahana Kumra and Ravi Kishan in Rangbaaz, which is set against the rustic background of the UP of the 90s. The story revolves around a man engaging in the dark and dirty world of crime and shows the human side of one of the most feared gangsters of the region from the '90s.

Talking about the same Tigmanshu Dhulia said, “Rangbaaz has a great narrative and the team working on it is excellent. I am excited to be a part of this project with ZEE5. I was attracted to my character Ram Shankar Tiwari - he is a sharp, relatable politician with power.”

Manish Aggarwal, Business Head, ZEE5 India said, “Rangbaaz, with a promising storyline and a creative bunch of actors will surely create excitement in the minds of viewers. It is not your regular gangster-cop drama. It is a story inspired by real-life events. With a veteran creative mind like Tigmanshu Dhulia joining the show, this time as an actor, it adds to the overall expectation from the audience. This is one of our biggest Originals at ZEE5 and we will reveal the launch date soon.”

Aparna Acharekar, Programming Head, ZEE5 India said, “Rangbaaz has a unique flavour and will surely catch the viewers’ attention. Whether it is all the actors essaying their respective characters with full conviction or the fantastic storytelling, Rangbaaz is sure to stand out. The ZEE5 content team led by Nidhi Mishra has done a commendable job of putting this show together. While we already have a fantastic cast, with Tigmanshu Dhulia joining the team as an actor, his inputs and creative expertise will further raise the expectation for the audience.”

Produced by JAR Pictures with Creative Director Nishikant Kamat & directed by Bhav Dhulia, written by RJ Siddharth (Siddharth Mishra), Rangbaaz premieres on ZEE5 this December.
