 After
the release of of Vikram Bhatt's Ankahee,
actor Aftab Shivdasani seems to be keeping a
low profile. “That's because I was away on a family
vacation to New York with my sister and
brother-in-law for two weeks and I had an awesome
holiday,” he explains.
Wasn't the fact that Ankahee crumbled so
unceremoniously a dampener to his vacation? “Not at
all! I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I admit I'd have
enjoyed my holiday more if I had gone with a hit to
my credit. You cannot let success or failure control
your moods,” he says.
Aftab feels the fact that he didn't dub for Ankahee
took away from his performance. “Vikram and I had
huge arguments about this. But I finally relented.
He wanted my character to speak in his (Vikram's)
voice, and I went ahead with it. Ankahee is my
second film with Vikram after Qasoor, where he has
dubbed for me. But now I'll never allow anyone else
to dub for me.”
At the moment Aftab is banking completely on Vikram
Bhatt's Red. “It's the only film I've chosen to do.
It's not a dark film like Ankahee, it’s a romantic
thriller where I play a guy who undergoes a heart
transplant. I'd rather do one film that allows me to
experiment as an actor than five which expect me to
repeat myself,” he says. |
