After the failure of his first and only action film Kidnap, actor Imran Khan has focussed mainly on romantic comedies. From I Hate Love Storys, Mere Brother Ki Dulhan and now Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, the actor has been exploring the romantic comedy genre to the fullest. The actor, now, is looking for something different. “I know that I’m doing a lot of rom-coms. I’d like to do something hard-hitting too. But how many such roles are actually being written?” he asked.
Imran, however, is ecstatic about Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, where he will be working with someone he admirers the most. “I’m finally working with Kareena,” he says, adding, “I had a secret crush on Kareena. When director Shakun Batra came to me with the script, he did not have a producer or even the final draft of the script. He just told me that he wants Kareena to do the role. And I said yes.” Produced by Dharma Productions, the film is slated to release on February 10. Speaking about the Indian film industry, Imran revealed that survival is not very easy in Bollywood.
“Survival in this industry is very difficult. One wrong move and you’ll be written off. So, I’m doing all my bit to ensure that I make all the right moves,” he says.
The actor, married to his college sweetheart Avantika Malik, also believes that unlike popular belief, his female fan following has not dipped post marriage. “An actor’s personal and professional lives are separate. I don’t think getting married or being in a relationship changes the audiences’ love for their stars,” he concludes.
