Even as Riteish Deshmukh prepares to play a robber in his next, Bank Chor, the actor reveals that he once stole a set of paint from his classmate, when he was in school.
“I may have been in Class VI, when I first attempted a robbery. It was of colours and brushes from the bag of my classmate,” recalls the actor. “These colours were made in London, and I was tempted to have them. When I got home, my mother asked me where I had gotten these from. I said, ‘I got it as a gift from my friend.’ I was so secretive that I went home and hid the colours somewhere, and for almost a year I did not remove them from that corner. As a precaution, I didn’t invite that classmate to my house either!”
Riteish is now all set to reprise his role as a thief, as he will be seen dodging Vivek Oberoi in the movie, who plays a CBI inspector. The two have made a great pair in the past, and will be seen in the heist movie Bank Chor releasing on June 16.
