What’s this we hear now? Abhay Deol wants to go commercial? Now, it’s not uncommon for actors to be scared of getting typecast. But for someone who started off his Bollywood journey wanting to be “different”, we surely didn’t see this coming.
The huge success of Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara seems to have taught Abhay a thing or two about good business sense and now he wants to work in more such commercial entertainers. In fact, the actor is concerned that his offbeat image is depriving him of a lot of commercial roles. “Abhay’s prime concern has always been content. If the script is good, nothing else matters,” says his spokesperson.
Those close to him feel that he has the ability to mould himself into any character. “An actor like him can definitely afford to experiment. I don’t see why he should stick to just parallel cinema. That man is a complete package,” says his close friend. Abhay’s change of attitude could have been a result of a pep-talk from big brother Sunny Deol, believe sources.
As long as he keeps himself from dancing around trees, the ladies won’t really mind. Although, we wonder if the lanky actor could ever pull off a “dhai kilo ka haath”.
