Mickey Virus is close to my heart: Manish Paul

Dar Motion Pictures’ Manish Paul -starrer Mickey Virus is all set to hit the silver screen this Friday. Himself a resident of Delhi’s Malviya Nagar, Manish was surprised to learn that the film would be about a computer hacker living in the same place. Not just this, Manish’s nick name in real life is Mickey which is his name in the film too. Also, parts of the film have been shot in Nehru Place, where Manish used to stand in a line for his favorite Rajma-Chawal. In fact, one day, during the shoot, the actor was thronged and lovingly pestered for autographs by the people who had seen him through his growing years. Observed Manish, “It’s heartening to see the people I have grown up with, being so appreciative of my work. That is my reward. On top of that, I am working in a film where my screen name is my real-life name. The guy belongs to the same place I grew up in from New Delhi. This movie is very close to my heart and will always hold a special place in my life.” Starring Manish Paul and Elli Avram, Mickey Virus also features Manish Choudhary, Varun Badola and Puja Gupta in pivotal roles. The film has been co-produced by Trilogic Digital Media Ltd.
