Creature 3D, slotted to release in September, stars Naqvi opposite Bipasha Basu. This is his first film, though he might have been seen in Indian theatres long ago if he hadn't been so busy. "I was offered the second lead in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish and the lead in Mohit Suri's Aashiqui 2, both of which went to Aditya Roy Kapoor," says Naqvi. "Bhansali had also wanted to launch me in Ram-Leela. But I was tied up in a contract with a production house in Pakistan at the time."

Don't know about Ram Leela and Guzaarish, but I am glad he didn't do Aashiqui 2.

So have you met this Imran chap?

Moin Beg who has written Heera Mandi wanted me to meet this actor. So on Moin's persistence I did meet him almost a year ago. I immediately realized he wasn't the actor I was looking for. The next thing I know, I'm supposed to be arranging this guy's visa to India. What nonsense! Just because I don't speak out, people take advantage of my silence.
Please don't exploit my name for your own advantage.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali doesn't need Pakistani actors 👏

And should I look at Pakistan for actors? We've very talented people in our country.

This news has broken many hearts I guess, for aspiring Pakistani actors. 😆

Pakistani actors ultimate dream is to work in India even though they are hostile towards it. They get offers from SLB (in dream of Imran) and YRF film with Kareena (Fawad's dream). 😛

You should choose Bangladeshi over Pakistani actor if you really want to see outsiders in Bollywood. Pakistan is an enemy state and Bangladesh is an ally state. So you better choose your ally. 😛

Raima Sen:

Bangladeshis should be treated as equals to Indians.

"Be compassionate towards the Bangladeshis as they have been emotionally and physically tormented and they deserve peace and harmony and well-being. We should treat them like equals and should not look down upon them," she added.
