Thursday, 7th August, 2014, 05:30 PM IST Known for his eclectic choice in roles, Ranbir Kapoor will now play a nomad who makes a living entertaining people while he travels from place to place in Imtiaz Ali’s next offering, ‘Tamasha’. "RK plays a free spirit who wants everybody around him to be happy. He doesn't have a permanent home but wanders from place to place, going out of his way to please people," a source from the film set revealed.
RK’s travels take him to Corsica where his character bumps into Deepika’s character who is an avid fan of the French comic series Asterix Obelix, set in Corsica. Deepika’s character is following a trail of a character from the comic book series embarking on an adventure for her own self. Along the way she meets RK’s character who also is a fan of the same series and they both take their fascination and love for this series forward by exploring the island. Amidst their journey they form a troupe of sorts and begin staging dramatic plays which eventually leads to them falling passionately in love.
The source also said that, "There are several sequences which have RK and Deepika dabbling in dance and staging skits for the locals.The troupe is one of the reasons for the film's title which also refers to the Shakespearean monologue, 'All the world's a stage and all the men and women merely players'."
