Gaurav Chopraa, who acted in his first Hollywood film Blood Diamond, is getting a lot of good offers despite doing only two scenes in the film.
Gaurav recently entered Left Right Left after it took a season's break. He is playing a music teacher in the serial. That apart, he is doing a cameo in a new show called Four. "I am playing the character of Mr. Perfect, who is very rich and good looking. We have also shot the song Sajanji ghar aaye, which was picturised on Salman Khan, for this show. I hope people will like that as well."
Accepting that life has changed after Blood Diamond, Gaurav says, "Yes, I am getting a lot of respect after the movie. This was a big role, even though the full footage was not shown in the film. But if a movie is so good and popular, your performance gets noticed even if you have small role."
Chopra continues, "Yesterday (June 15), I went for Jhoom Barabar Jhoom's premiere and there Abhishek Bachchan told me ' I am proud of you and liked your work in the film.' He was very excited after watching me and I was surprised that the whole media was behind him but he made way and came to me. At least for five minutes we were holding each other's hands and chatting nicely. Then, after the film got over, I got a chance to return the compliment. I told him that I too liked his role in this film. Further, other stars and directors also came and praised my performance. I am very thankful to God for it."
Did the fact that it was a Hollywood film make all the difference?
"Well, the main thing is the film should be good, whether it is a Bollywood or Hollywood film. If this movie had not done well, I don't think I would have been getting the same number of offers. Thankfully things have worked out well for me," an ecstatic Gaurav signs off.
