Honeymoon over, Iqbal Khan is ready to work again...

Back after his brisk honeymoon, Iqbal Khan is ready to face the arc lights again. His was one the most low profile weddings that took place two weeks ago, in Mumbai. Incidentally, the actor didn't invite anyone from the industry and he has no regrets for the same. He says, "I don't like to bring my personal life in public. Even Sneha is not fond of shor-sharaba and I think we like it that way."

Immediately after marriage Iqbal and Sneha went to Maldives for their honeymoon. The actor enjoyed every moment of it. "Maldives is a very romantic place and we enjoyed to the hilt," he says.

The actor has not been following any television soap, since the time he left Balaji's Karam Apna Apna. "I don't sit and watch television on a regular basis, but I have been told that Yash (Tonk) is doing a fantastic job," he says. The actor is now seriously looking for good offers. "It's high time I get back to work. I need to buy a house. I have started meeting people and will soon be in a position to make an announcement," he says.

The actor doesn't want to try his hand in films. "My debut film Funtoosh was not a pleasant experience as far as the box-office results were concerned. I think television has given me the recognition as an actor and I shall never quit TV for films," he says.

So, will he be meeting Ekta Kapoor again? "I never had any problem with Ekta. I didn't quit Balaji on a bad note. So, I am sure that the day I want to work with Ekta, she will sign me," he argues.

The actor was recently featured in Zee TV's Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai, but he feels that it was too early. "It's just beginning of my career and I have a way to go as a performer. But meeting old pals and my school teacher after ages was great fun," he says.
