A man on an extraction mission, a young girl held captive in a war-torn hostile environment of Syria, how will she escape this world of death?. Disney+ Hotstar is all set to release the biggest extraction series of the year, ‘The Freelancer’. The series is based on the book - A Ticket to Syria by Shirish Thorat, directed by Bhav Dhulia, produced by Friday Storytellers and Neeraj Pandey is the Creator and Showrunner. Set to release on September 1, 2023 on Disney+ Hotstar, The Freelancer is helmed by popular actor Mohit Raina and veteran actor Anupam Kher along with Kashmira Pardeshi. The series also features talented actors like Sushant Singh, John Kokken, Gauri Balaji and Navneet Malik, Manjiri Faddnis, Sarah Jane Dias amongst others
To sink into the skin of the character and adapt to its intricacies is often challenging for any actor. For The Freelancer, Mohit Raina spent enough time to understand the nuances of his character Avniash Kamath. The talented actor decodes his character and what went into preparing for the role.
Talking about this, Mohit Raina said, “Well to stay true to the story I had to show the transition of the character from early failures in life to a mature guy who has lived his life and gained experience. For the early life we tried to look lean and for the current life it was slight grey hair and someone who would come across as harmless and would easily blend in a crowd. I always struggle with drinking scenes , it’s something that doesn’t come easy to me . Apart from that it was more action related and getting used to the terrain on a daily basis .
