Another feather in Anuj`s cap

Maverick Anuj Saxena is at it again! The doc-turned-actor, who has lately turned producer and restaurateur, adds one more role to his never-ending agenda in life. Saxena has now turned to modelling! He is endorsing a male fairness cream formulated by Shahnaz Husain and will feature in commercials as well as print ads of the product.

It appears you are trying to be Jack of All and Master of None?
No, not at all. I think I am becoming a Master of All and Jack of None.

Have you modelled before?
Yes. I began as a model. My first ad was for Proline sportswear with Rhea Pillai and Anu Kuttoor. I have modelled for HMT, ICICI, Rajdoot, Prudent mouthwash and more

Would you ever use a fairness cream?
All this while I never did, but now I have started using Fair One Male every morning and night. I use it not only for the fairness aspect but also because the cream serves as a moisturiser as well as a sunscreen.

All this makes you sound like a metrosexual!
Well, not exactly! But yes, I am conscious about my looks.

Are you modelling because your own company (Elder Pharma) is marketing the male fairness cream?
We were thinking of a celebrity to endorse the brand, and someone from my team suggested my name. We thought about it seriously and finally a consensus was reached.

Wasn't there the need to have a fair model to go with what the product's image?
You mean to say I am dark?

Perhaps a well-known face or a star to endorse the brand?
Not necessarily. These people are already endorsing too many brands and people have pre-conceived notions about them. A new face is always better.

Acting, business, production and restaurant. Don't you think it is too much to handle?
There's that phrase, 'Gimme more!'

You were ambitious about films as a producer as well as actor. Whatever happened to that?
I am still very ambitious. There will be some major developments very soon.

Don't you think you are making too many announcements?
Too many thing are happening in my life right now, so what to do?
