Fawad Khan, one of the most sought after actors in
Pakistan, says he would love to take up roles
like "3 Idiots" or "Munnabhai" in future.
A fine actor, he has carved a niche for himself in his
homeland with his performance in movies
like "Khuda Kay Liye" and successful TV shows
such as "Humsafar" and "Zindagi Gulzar Hai".
Now he is all set to woo the movie buffs here with
his first Bollywood film "Khoobsurat", which hits
screens Friday. Post that he wishes to play all
rounder kind of characters on the big screen.
"I would want to depict roles that has everything,
something that is called mainstream here. '3 Idiots'
and 'Munnabhai' series are few examples of
mainstream films and I would like to do such
roles," Fawad told IANS.
"I want to crossover completely and do every kind
of roles," added the actor, who enjoys a huge fan
following here too, thanks to his TV series, which
are now beamed here.
His success mantra is to add perfection to his
characters that he gets to play.
"My roles in all my TV shows had some kind of
flaws. I never got a perfect role to play, but I tried
to play all the imperfect roles perfectly and make it
better," said the actor who was in town along with
his co-stars Sonam Kapoor and Kirron Kher to
promote "Khoobsurat".
The actor, who plays Vikram Singh Rathod, a
serious no-nonsense kind of guy in "Khoobsurat",
a remake of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's directorial
venture, clarifies that there is no similarity between
him and his character in the fun-filled drama.
He said: "I am not at all a boring and quiet person
in real life, something that my character has been
depicted as in the film."
When asked how did he prepare for the role, he
thanked ace designer Raghavendra Rathore, who
has royal lineage, and said: "My clothes in the film
were made by him. So whenever he used to come,
I used to observe him a lot. His mannerism, royalty,
and the way he talks with people, helped me lot."
Also a singer, Fawad is open to collaborate with
Indian filmmakers on music front.
"I was asked to sing a song in 'Khoobsurat', but I
denied the offer. However, in future, I won't mind
doing it," he said.
