His off-screen Casanova image has certainly been put to good use. Rohit Roy will now be seen playing a philanderer in the Jimmy Shergill and Neha Dhupia starrer, Delhi Heights.

"I play Bobby, who owns an advertising agency. He keeps running into beautiful girls everyday. Although Bobby is very happy with his wife (played by Simone Singh), he has a roving eye and thinks he's not in the wrong when he's flirting. I know a friend who's exactly like Bobby and I have tried to ape him in Delhi Heights," says Rohit. "I know I have an image of a flirt. I think that's why they cast me in this role so that the character would appear more believable. I've nothing against the media for labeling me as a ladies' man."

Well, in that case, what's the difference between the real and reel Rohit? "The only difference is that I stop at healthy flirting while my on-screen character takes it to another level. In real life, I know where to draw the line. Those who know me will admit that I'm a family man. With a wife like Manasi, I would be stupid to go astray. In fact, she has been present at all those parties where I have been clicked posing with different women. Thankfully, being an actor herself, Manasi understands all this. I am glad that to have a wife like her," says the actor.

Apart from this, Rohit is busy with Baat Pakki, a film that's being directed by Meghana Gulzar, "Baat Pakki has Fardeen and Esha in the lead. It's a story about four honeymooning couples. I don't want to reveal the name of my co-star at the moment," he says.
