In an exclusive interview with ifilm, ‘The Tenth Night’ big-hearted Yavar acted by Parviz Fallahipour has talked about his role.
While appearing as Yavar in the series ‘The Tenth Night’ gained him nationwide fame, Fallahipour was initially very much willing to play the role.
“Mr. Fathi asked me about which role I liked to play. I said if I was to choose, I would want to play the role of Yavar and it is up to you as the director to give me the role or not,” said Fallahipour.
He then continues that, “The production team, however, believed that the role of Yavar should be given to a more famous actor. I was not well-known at the time.”
Yavar was finally bestowed upon the hands of Fallahipour and the actor could very well portray the role.
Following ‘The Tenth Night’, Fallahipour then made several appearances in many successful series such as ‘Solace of the Heart’, ‘If My Dad Were Alive’ and ‘The Man with a Thousand Faces’.
