'Whenever I sing, people tell me to shut up!'
Hussain Kuwajerwala may be anchoring a talent hunt for singers, but he's glad he doesn't have to hum on the show
DEEPALI DHINGRA
It's been five years that Hussain Kuwajerwala has been doing Kumkum, but the serial shows no signs of ending. Ask Hussain if he feels stagnated and he avers, "Luckily for me, there's never been a time when I have done only Kumkum. First there was Krishna Arjun that ran for almost two years, then Khulja Sim Sim and Kisme Kitna Hai Dum happened. Then I did Nach Baliye and Shabash India has been on for quite some time now," he says. The actor does admit that it gets monotonous sometimes, but he takes it up as a challenge. "You have to keep thinking up ways of how to revive the character," he adds.
Luckily again for the actor, he got an offer to host the third season of Indian Idol on Sony, which he's most excited about. "It's great to be associated with a show that everybody's so familiar with. I was really amazed by the confidence levels of the contestants. Each one of them believes that they have it in them to become the next Indian Idol and that's so amazing," he says with a smile. Apart from gaining an insight into the lives of these contestants, has Hussain been inspired to sing too? "Whenever I try and sing, people tell me to shut up!" he laughs and jokes that the one thing he was relieved about while taking up this offer was that the host is not required to sing!
After Nach Baliye, Hussain's popularity has soared. So what does he have to say about all the adulation? "I don't take such things seriously. Yes, it does make me feel happy but then, this medium is so big that everybody gets to have their time. And I guess, this is my time," he says modestly.
