| | | ‘An actor is the best judge of his abilities’ | | | | What’s your role in Ishqiya?
I play a businessman who trades in carpets. I’m involved in an extra-marital affair. My character has a sinister trait.
Having done so many films, was it frustrating to fit into the process of auditioning?
I still don’t have a portfolio. But what’s the harm in auditioning for a part? This one, of course, was slightly different because one isn’t asked to send showreels in Kolkata. I reached the Indrapuri Studios when Kolkata was paralysed by yet another michhil. I requested Riingo, to shoot me enacting an interrogation and a lovemaking scene.
You’ve worked with Naseeruddin Shah earlier too...
Yes, I have done a serial titled Tarkash directed by Suman Mukhopadhyay. I don’t know whether Naseer bhai remembers how he had told Suman that since I was acting well, he should go for my close-ups. I had asked him what he thought of me as an actor. Naseer bhai had said that becoming an actor is a personal choice......... | | |
