Known for his villainous roles both in the southern film Industry and Bollywood, Pradeep is best remembered for his iconic evil role in Aamir Khan"s "Ghajini".
Pradeep is back on screen as the lead antagonist in comedy film "Grand Masti", where he plays the principal of a college. He sports a classy European look with his checked jackets and berets and plays a stern character in the movie.
"Rawat portrays the main negative character in the film. The kind of fear factor needed for this role was wonderfully brought out by him, as he is easily the next Amrish Puri of our era," a source close to the project said.
Produced by Ashok Thakeria and Indra Kumar, "Grand Masti" is set to release on September 13.
