Meanwhile, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub recalled his time as a student of Delhi University, where he says he saw politics from close proximity.

The actor plays Shiva Shekhar, a student in a Delhi-based university called VNU in Tandav. His character becomes a student leader who is drawn into a political quagmire.

Asked if he took inspiration from any real-life people or incidents for his role, Zeeshan told IANS: “I keep reading things and I am quite an aware person when it comes to politics. I was also a student of Delhi University so, I have seen politics from very close proximity. It was homework of 20 years. I did not take inspiration from any (real life person or incident) because it is a fictional character though my subconscious might have taken some inspiration from real life people.”
