Tarsem Singh Jassar says “amazing” architecture and a warm welcome have made his first visit to a Yorkshire city unforgettable as he takes on a role exploring identity and racism in Britain.
The Indian actor and singer, 38, plays the lead in Dastaar, the first Bollywood production to be filmed in Hull.
“People are really sweet here, I love that,” he added.
Jassar said his character was inspired by the experiences of Sikhs who came to the UK decades ago and faced discrimination.
