New world record alert, folks! Ravi Dubey has created history by emerging as the new monologue king!
The popular actor has delivered world’s largest monologue, 28-minute-long, for his latest show.
Ravi Dubey has created history by performing a 28-minute-long monologue in a single take for the JioCinema courtroom drama – Lakhan Leela Bhargava. The actor plays the role of a criminal lawyer from Lucknow in the show.
According to Pinkvilla, the actor’s monologue is a part of his concluding statement of his argument in a court scene. Reportedly, the monologue was shot in a single camera.
Talking about his new achievement, Ravi told the portal –
“As an actor, I feel it’s our constant responsibility to push the envelope and deliver new, unique and interesting content to the audience. It’s our responsibility to attempt what’s not been done to the best of our ability. This 28 minute single shot monologue was one such opportunity that I got very excited about. We realized we have a winner at hand that can set a precedent. We worked on the script overnight on the sets post our shift and immediately shot it the next day in a single take.”
“Being a courtroom drama the setting lent us an opportunity to attempt something like this, I am happy to report it went wonderfully well and we can safely say that this is among the longest single shot monologues in the world. This sequence adds a certain gravitas that not only elevates the impact of the show but also creates a valuable asset that we all will cherish for our lifetime.”
– he added.
Ravi’s wife-actress Sargun Mehta took to Instagram to celebrate the milestone. She shared a reel from Google showing that her husband created history by delivering the ‘longest monologue in the world’.
