Girish Kulkarni finds director Nitesh Tiwari calm and composed.

Marathi actor Girish Kulkarni, who worked with Nitesh Tiwari in Dangal, says he has never seen a calm and composed director like him.

Girish told IANS: “Nitesh is a fantastic director. I haven’t seen such a calm and composed director ever. He is open to take suggestions from his actors. His vision is very clear or else it wouldn’t have been easy to direct such a mega project so well.”

He plays the role of a coach in “Dangal”, which stars Aamir Khan.

“My character revolves around the protagonist so, I am the only character who creates obstacles in the journey. I have a substantial role in the film. That’s why I said yes to this film,” said Girish.

About Aamir Khan, Girish says what he observed while working with the 51-year-old actor was his no-pretence attitude. “Aamir is a very good human being, so he never hides anything. If he is scared, he will say ‘Oh I am a little scared to do this’. I found that very good, real and relatable. I find it weird when you do something out of pretence,” the actor said.
