Surprised at Jaane Tu..`s success: Imran

New Delhi, July 06: Exuberant over the great opening of his film ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’, Bollywood’s latest light-eyed boy Imran Khan, revealed some sweet bit of his life in an exclusive tête-à-tête with Harsha Mary and Shivangi Singh of Spicezee.com. Wearing a grey T-Shirt with a tattooed back, the 25-yr-old debutante smiled warmly as he answered the questions put up by the team:Spicezee: Please tell us about your upcoming projects? Imran: (sounding enthusiastic) I am currently working on two films. ‘Kidnap’ and ‘Luck’. ‘Kidnap’ is written by Shibani Bhatija, who wrote Karan Johar`s ‘Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna’. Minissha Lamba is my co-star in the film. ‘Luck’ is an action packed thriller, directed by Soham Shah. Kamal Haasan’s daughter, Shruthi Kamal Haasan will be my co-star. She is an amazing actress. Spicezee: In an interview, Genelia called you a ‘prankster’. Are you really like that? Imran: (smiles) No, infact am not that funny prank-playing kind of person. I used to crack jokes with Genelia, but she hardly used to understand it. But she is a very sweet person and a very good actress. Spicezee: You have been educated abroad. Have you undergone training in acting? Imran: No, I have been trained in script-writing and directing but not as an actor. I am a filmmaker. Spicezee: Your debut movie is doing so well. How does it feel? Imran: (enthusiastically) To be very frank, I never expected such an overwhelming response to my film. I am surprised at the success of my film. Theatres are going jam packed. I never like my work, I constantly criticize my work. But the feedback I am receiving on my film is amazing. Spicezee: Who is your favourite actress in Bollywood as of now? Imran: (candidly) I think Kareena Kapoor is the best. She is an amazing actress. She acts very well. Spicezee: And out of the actresses of yesteryears… Imran: I think Madhuri Dixit is the best. She dances extremely well. I respect and like her a lot. Spicezee: Out of the recent bunch of newcomers in Bollywood like, Harman Baweja, Sikander Kher, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Ranbir, who do you think is the most promising? Imran: I think Ranbir is a superstar. He rocks! He has everything that it takes to be a star. He is brilliant in acting and dancing. Spicezee: What is your take on ‘Love Story 2050’ that released with your ‘Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na’? Imran: Well, I didn’t have a chance to watch ‘Love Story…’. The movie released this Friday, since then my schedule has been really packed. I have been in Delhi, giving interviews. Spicezee: Who do you like better - Aamir the actor or Aamir the person? Imran: I like Aamir the person more. He is a great human being and he has never been unfair to anyone in his entire lifetime. Spicezee: Are you seeing someone? Imran: (brightly) Yes, I am and her name is Avantika. I have known her for six years now. I love my girl-friend and very happy with her. Spicezee: Was it love at first sight with Avantika? Imran: (smiles) I don’t believe in love at first sight. What happened between us was gradual. We started as friends. At this ‘lovey-dovey’ note the interview ended. Imran Khan, still untouched by stardom and glitzy façade of Bollywood, smiled amiably at shutterbugs. As he turned, displaying a tattoo on his neck, we bid good-bye to another star on the rise.
