"It is a clean, innocent comedy without any double-meaning dialogues," he says. The second script is a serious project, which is in the "second draft of repairs." The write look The actor has begun approaching the right people to hear out the script. "I have to tell them I act, I sing and I also write. My jean-clad tattoo image of a writer is a tad too hard to digest for most, so I have to wear the kurta-bag look to fit in as a writer." Exploring act Turning to acting, however, does not mean that he does not want to act. After playing Munna in Vishal Bharadwaj's much-acclaimed Maqbool, Gehi treads the alternate path in the just-released MTV-produced spoof, Ghoom (a take-off on Dhoom). He enacts the bike mechanic role of Uday Chopra. "The response to Ghoom has taken us by surprise; it's doing fairly well. In fact, over the weekend, I was in a Pune multiplex and the auditorium was full." For him, it is savouring different ends of the acting spectrum. "Each has been a singularly distinct experience." Missing character On the small screen, he was seen as Rahul in the Star Plus daily Miilee. He went missing from the drama after Celebrity Fame Gurukul. The character was shown packed off to Mumbai. Later, there was talk that I would be back in the show, but then, how do you revive a lost track? And then, I heard the show was going off air, so I guess, what was the point of reviving a track when the serial itself is ending?" Gehi is looking forward to take up another television project as well as talks are on for film projects." | |||
