Has Rajeev forgiven Ekta Kapoor?

Who are your co-stars in the film?

They aren’t famous names, but extremely talented people from theatre and television. In fact when you will see them on screen, you will recognise most faces. Aamir has over 30 characters, with each one making 5-minute-long, but strong appearances. Now I might play the title role but I won't call myself the hero of the film. I just happen to have the longest screen time. I don’t even have a heroine in the film.

That’s interesting, considering you had a famous lover boy image on TV. Was it a conscious decision to break away from your stereotype?

Initially even I had planned to debut in a film where I am romancing a pretty girl, singing songs, shouting her name while fighting the villains and the regular stuff that a newcomer is expected to do. So when this offer came to me I was a little confused about taking the risk. But I read the script and decided to accept the challenge, so that fans can see a different side of me. Also the story has no scope for a heroine. Actually it’s not such a bad idea, as I get to hog all the limelight without anyone to distract the audience.

Did you go through any extra training for cinema?


I did train a little and discovered what a horrible actor I was. In television because we have to can one episode a day, the role becomes mechanical. You are just rattling away lines from the script without giving any thought to the character. Here my director had a clear vision about what he wanted. And even I knew that my character had a definite beginning and end, unlike my roles on television.

Don't be rude or interrupt others who are having a conversation. Ethnic slurs, personal insults and abuses are rather uncool. Criticise, but know where to draw the line. No point putting in personal details or links, we won't publish them. Try and write in English and please, stick to the point!
