Sacred Games-fame Jatin Sarna is gathering praise for his performance in AR Murugadoss’s Darbar. The action-drama stars Rajinikanth as a Mumbai cop cleaning up the city. Jatin essays the role of a gangster in the film.

“It has been a wonderful experience to work with Rajinikanth sir,” Jatin says. “Now that the film has been released to such a great response, I have been getting a lot of calls and messages from my colleagues, friends, and family, and everyone is as happy as I am. Though it is a cameo, for me, it is the very first work of mine in the south industry and that too with such stalwarts. What more can you ask for?”

Other Bollywood actors in Darbar include Suniel Shetty, Prateik Babbar, and Dalip Tahil. The film stars Nayanthara as the female lead and Nivetha Thomas as Rajinikanth’s daughter.

Jatin Sarna’s upcoming release is ‘83, where he plays the role of cricketer Yashpal Sharma.
