Abhay Deol describes his role in the Netflix film Trial By Fire as his ‘toughest role ever’

Known for his selection of unconventional cinema, Abhay Deol will once again be seen in a unique avatar in the forthcoming drama Trial By Fire inspired by real-life incidents that followed post the Uphaar fire tragedy in 1997. The actor will be playing the role of Shekhar Krishnamoorthy, who co-authored the book ‘Trial by Fire: The Tragic Tale of the Uphaar Fire Tragedy’ along with his wife Neelam. The actor took to social media to talk about his character and also referred to it as one of his biggest onscreen challenges.

Abhay Deol took to Instagram to share this photo of his look from the film along with a note about his character Shekhar Krishnamoorthy saying, “Possibly the hardest role I’ve ever had to portray. I’ve done true stories before but this one has to be the most tragic. A fire that left a trail of tragedies in its wake. Tragedies Neelam and Shekhar Krishnamoorthy had to deal with over the two plus decades. Follow their journey in #TrialByFire, trailer out tomorrow only on @netflix_in.”
