Vicky Kaushal almost rejected Uri - The Surgical Strike, but his father changes his decision

"Actually I had almost said no to 'Uri'. I was shooting for 'Raazi' when I got a call from Ronnie Screwvala's team. I was told they're sending me an action film script and I'm the first actor they're approaching, and plan to make the film now. We were shooting an emotional scene in 'Raazi', so it was a heavy day. I went back home and I saw the script. Then I wasn't (thinking like) an actor, I wanted to know what had happened because we had seen it in the news," Vicky Kaushal told PTI.

The actor told that he read the script like a book and just wanted to know the details of the operation, but as he was tired of shooting or maybe in different space, even after four hours he failed to connect with it.

Vicky Kaushal told that he went to shoot "Raazi" to the next day with the script lying in his house. It was his father action-director Sham Kaushal who read the script and asked him what he thought of it. "I said I couldn't enter the zone. It took me a long time as usually, I finish a script in two hours but I took four-and-a-half hours for this one. He told me, 'If you miss doing this film, it'll be the stupidest decision of your life',"

Vicky then decided to go with the script and called RSVP and said that he wants to do this film, please don't go to any actor, he can do anything for the film.
