What Babil said
During the recent interaction, Babil recalled a particular incident and said, “I threw my phone once in the Andaman ocean. Because somebody called me, I was like, ‘I am scuba diving, what do you want?’ He said, ‘You will have to come back, you have this brand to do.’ I was like, ‘Okay, I will just come, give me five minutes.’ And the next thing I did is just threw my phone in the ocean. I am not kidding. This is a true story.”
‘I live life on my own terms’
He went on to add what happened next. “What consequences? I live life on my own terms and nobody can stop me from doing that. I live it to the fullest. I live with full emotions. I cry, I feel the hate, I respond to the hate as well. I am a shy person, but I don’t shy away from living my life,” he said.
In Logout, Babil plays the role of an influencer. Directed by Amit Golani, produced by Vipin Agnihotri, and written by Biswapati Sarkar, the cyber thriller explores the dark side of digital fame and the psychological toll of a life lived online. The film also stars Rasika Dugal, Gandharv Dewan, and Nimisha Nair in pivotal roles. Logout released on ZEE5 on April 18.
