Abhay D. – detoxified

To get into the skin of his character of a self-pitying, self-destructive, alcohol guzzling, jilted lover in Kashyap’s modern day interpretation of Sarat Chandra’s Devdas , Abhay Deol lived a disorderly, erratic lifestyle that included getting drunk, keeping awake at night and remaining unkempt and disheveled.

It was Kashyap himself who asked Abhay to look scruffy and untidy for many sequences. He would encourage Abhay to take on the lifestyle of a drunk for the days the shoot lasted.


And determined to give his best, Abhay took to a debauched lifestyle for a few weeks. Though the performance came through, Abhay was so affected by it at the end that he decided to attend a weeklong course of Vipassana at Igatpuri just to detox himself.

The fresh air, combined with meditation and serene atmosphere at the camp so soothed Abhay’s senses that he prolonged his stay for a week.

During the course of this time Abhay D changed from Abhay Drunk to Abhay Detoxified.
