EXCLUSIVE: Ranvir Shorey to play lawyer fighting for 2002 Godhra train burning victims in Godhra: Accident or Conspiracy

Ranvir Shorey has been impressing audiences with his talent since more than two decades. Along with comedies like Pyaar Ke Side Effects, Khosla Ka Ghosla, Bheja Fry, etc, he has also proved his mettle in more serious films like No Smoking, Titli, Gaur Hari Dastaan, A Death In The Gunj, Sonchiriya, etc. He was last seen in Yash Raj Film’s biggie Tiger 3 with Salman Khan in a brief but important role. He carried on his character from the first film of the franchise Ek Tha Tiger.

Ranvir is now all set to play another serious character in the hard-hitting drama Godhra: Accident or Conspiracy, which is directed by MK Shivaaksh. As per the title, the film is based on the train burning incident of 2002 where a number of pilgrims, who were returning from Ayodhya, were killed.

Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that Ranvir will be playing the role of a lawyer in the movie. A source close to the project revealed, “Ranvir will be playing the lawyer who fights the case on behalf the victims of the train burning incident that took place in Godhra in February 2002.
