Dalip Tahil: Spent Months Researching Zulfiqar Bhutto's Life, Mannerisms, Speech Patterns

Tahil's casting has also brought to the fore the cultural and historical ties that bind the Sindhi communities on either side of the India-Pakistan border. Tahhil had with himself the opportunity to play such an important character and showcase the cultural similarities between the two countries.

When we asked Tahil to play the role of Zulfiqar Bhutto in 'IB71', he said, "Playing the role of Zulfiqar Bhutto was a challenge that I couldn't resist. I needed to bring a sense of authenticity and nuance to the character."

"I spent months researching Bhutto's life, his mannerisms, and his speech patterns. I hope that my portrayal of the character does justice to his legacy and brings to the fore the cultural similarities that exist between our two countries."
