After Hrithik in "Krrish" and SRK in the under-production "Ra. One", Bollywood actor Kunal Kapoor is ready to play the role of a superhero.

The actor said that he's very much excited to play this new.

Kunal will play a superhero in the film 'Doga', which is an Anurag Kashyap direction.

"When I was offered the role, I thought I might not be the right choice for it, but then I accepted it, because it was very interesting," Kunal added.

'Doga' is a comic book character and is about Suraj, an orphan brought up by Daku Halkan Singh, who treated him like a dog.

In order to take revenge, Suraj adopted the alter ego of Doga, wearing a dog mask to conceal his personal identity. He's a one-man army against organized crime.

The report also said that Kunal had to do some serious gyming to sport a larger body and resemble a macho superhero. The film will be an out-and-out action thriller with high-end special effects.

The 34-year-old, who was appreciated for his superb acting in film "Rang De Basanti", went on to do films like "Laaga Chunari Mein Daag", "Aaja Nachle" and "Bachna Ae Haseeno" among others.

Now, Apart from "Doga", he is waiting for the release of his film on the lives of Kashmiris, "Lamha", and "Chamkila" being directed by Navdeep Singh.

"Chamkila is one film I'm looking forward to and 'Lamha' is also coming where I play a youth leader," he added.

Kunal was also part of the promotional events for "Lamha", directed by Rahul Dholakia and also starring Bipasha Basu, at the ongoing International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) weekend, here. (With Inputs from Agencies)
