By Rajesh Ahuja

The primary focus in the trailer and promos of the much awaited web series The Big Bull may be on Abhishek Bachchan but the show, which will stream on Disney Hotstar from April 8, features actor Sohum Shah  in a pivotal role in the series .

Sohum Shah plays the brother of the Big Bull Hemant Shah in The Big Bull. Makers of the film said that Sohum 's character in the film is a pillar of strength in the life of The Big Bull. 

Ahead of the streaming of the web series, that is said to be inspired by life of Harshad Mehta, the makers said, ' Behind every mastermind, there is a pillar of strength. Sohum Shah plays Viren, The Big Bull's brother who is his shadow and his strongest support.

Talking about the role played by him, Sohum shah said,' Viren is a person who is totally contented with life and does not have many desires.
He is a person who is happy in whatever little he has.

Therefore, his journey from zero to hero has an objectivity about it. It is his sense of objectivity that makes him sense that something of what is happening is not right. Infact, he makes all effort to stop it.'

Director of The Big Bull Kookie Gulati says that Soham Shah is the surprise element of the film.

'Sonam Shah will be a revelation in the film ,'he said.

Sohum has earlier worked in National Award-winning film  Ship of Theseus (2015), Talvar (2015), Simran (2017) and Tumbbad.
