| His debut film 'Mummyji' is being made in Hindi, English and Punjabi. Talking about the film, Sachin exults, "Bollywood is a natural progression for any actor worth his salt and I was waiting for the right time to make this transition. 'Mummyji' is a comedy film that talks about the trauma that a boy of marriageable age goes through in the bride–hunting phase. Generally, we only think about the girls' travails in such cases but guys too have their fair share of hitches, which the film is portraying, albeit in a light vein." So, is Sachin enacting a situation similar to what he might be facing in real life? "Yes, to a large extent!" the actor admits, though refusing to divulge more details. Sachin is excited about the fact that he's getting a chance to show his comic side through 'Mummyji'. "Till now, I had done either the good-boy roles or the negative ones but never a comedy. As an actor, I want to stretch my limits and work in as many genres as possible; in that sense, I idolise Hrithik Roshan and would love to do a variety of characters like he does." When asked if his Bollywod debut would mark the end of his tryst with TV, Sachin refutes it saying, "Certainly not, I am not leaving television. I am immensely enjoying my bad-boy stint in 'Vaidehi'. It's fun to play someone so wicked that it's hard to imagine that he can be real" remarks Sachin. On reactions to his wickedness, he recollects, "My neighbour's son, who used to cling to me when I was playing Krishna, now actually bangs thedoor on my face when he sees me.Though it's a compliment for the actor in me, it's scary to see the effect that tele-serials can have on impressionable minds!" | ||
