Shiney, the repentant hitman

Shiney Ahuja’s character in Sudhir Mishra’s Hitman has been changed from an assassin to a repentant assassin, lest the role hampers his case.
Shiney, the repentant hitman
Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra, who has been a mentor and friend to Shiney Ahuja, has once again proved his affection for the actor. Sudhir, who is doing Hitman with the actor, is shaping Shiney���s lead role in the film in such a way that it doesn���t harm his precarious position vis-��-vis the judiciary.
The actor is out on bail after being imprisoned for alleged charges of raping his domestic help.

Confirming the news, Sudhir says, ���Hitman is the story of an assassin who looks back on his violent life the day that he thinks he will die. We will certainly not show him in a light that will hamper his case or image. My writer, Vinitesh is putting together the character in a way that it doesn���t clash with Shiney���s interests. In my film, he is a repentant hitman. We want the law to take its course, but at the same time, we want Shiney to feel he is part of the mainstream.���
Sudhir, who speaks regularly with Shiney, who���s now in Delhi, says the actor had not quite recovered from his 100-day trauma. ���He probably never will. No one can fully recover from such an ordeal. But at least friends should make him feel welcome and comfortable. If, as you say, he is being ostracised, then it���s really sad. Now that he is out, Shiney needs to lead a normal life, which he is struggling with currently. At the moment, he���s struggling hard to get back to being the way he was. I introduced Shiney because I had full faith in him as an actor and a human being. The only reason Shiney is not in my recent films is because he didn���t suit the roles.���
