'Tum ko itna gussa kyun aata hai?' 'Ab aur kitna pareshaan karogey apni wife ko?' And he seemed to be in a fix. "Main kaun sa apni marzi se karta hoon? I simply do what the director says," he answered with a smile.
Blame it on the role he plays on television of an aggressive, over possessive and deeply insecure husband But he isn't complaining. He takes it all as a compliment. The viewers, he says, generally believe the celluloid image to be true. "And I really wanted to do a role that people remember.
I, in fact, agreed to do this role only because of its intensity. I didn't want to be a part of a serial where the husband stands next to his wife doing absolutely nothing! Television is anyway female-dominated, so I didn't want to get lost in a small insignificant role," explained the actor, who has done many films down South. At present, he is considering more film offers from South and even Bollywood.
I have been offered roles in Bollywood films; things will get finalized very soon. I am just taking some time to decide, for I don't want to be like many other small screen actors who switched to films later, but never achieved success, as they worked in only B-grade films that didn't do well," he says. So what are his plans? "I will either do a role in a good film or won't do any at all... I want to play my cards really well," said the actor, who is currently single and not quite ready to mingle!
