Popular Standup comedian and actor Vir Das who is known for his comical roles in films like Go Goa Gone and the recent Shaadi Ke Side Effects, is all set to play a serious role.

In fact this is a lead role for him in the film. He will be starring opposite Kangana Ranaut in this Tigmanshu Dhulia film. The two have been attending a series of workshop with the director. "Vir plays a guy from Bhopal called Rohan who usually has his way with women. And once he is done with them, he unceremoniously dumps them. While Vir may think he's using her, it could actually be just the opposite. The film has several erotic scenes," reveals a source.

Vir has confirmed playing a toy-boy in this film and is super excited to work with this intellectual team.

The film is scheduled to go on floors in March.
