Rajpal Yadav goes to Hollywood

Director Ravi Kumar's film also features Hollywood names Mischa Barton and Martin Sheen as well as Indian-American actor Kal Penn.

Tannishtha Chatterjee too joins the cast of the film, which will hit Indian screens in December.

"I am extremely satisfied with my Hollywood debut and it's a dream come true for me," said the actor. "I have been part of the industry for so long and I have played comedy roles, supporting roles, and lead roles. But when you get such a project, you feel satisfied as an actor," said Yadav.

‘Bhopal – A Prayer For Rain’ is based on true events of 1984 when a toxic gas leak from the Union Carbide Corpo-ration's pesticide plant in the Madhya Pradesh capital killed and maimed thousands of people.

"I am playing the lead in it. I am playing actress Tannishtha's husband. It will release in India on Dec and Nov in the US," he said.
