Small screen's Dhritarashtra keen to explore Bollywood...

Now that Mahabharat is going to go off air Saturday, actor Anoop Singh Thakur, who plays King Dhritarashtra in the show is looking out for greener pastures in filmdom.

"The show ('Mahabharat') is going off air soon and now if there is an end, there is always a beginning. So I am really keen to move into movies," Anoop said in a statement.

If a source is to be believed, he has a few offers from the southern film world, but he is focused only on Bollywood.

"I would like to do roles that are serious, especially action stuff. I would love to do performance-oriented roles and (I will) try to do full justice to them," he added.

Meanwhile, "Mahabharat", which airs on Star Plus, will end on Saturday.
