00:00In this way, I was tired of doing sweet roles.
00:05When I went to a negative role, the directors told me that I didn't like it.
00:09How can we cast you?
00:11In the regional films, there was a lot of challenge because
00:14you have to understand the language,
00:16you have to learn a little mastery of your language.
00:19You don't have to learn your language.
00:21Raksha Kumar goes to the world with how many stunts they do.
00:24So if Raksha Kumar is doing it, it's a very good thing for the show.
00:30This director, his name is Vijay Agarwal.
00:34This is an NRI from India.
00:38At this time, the character of Aditi,
00:42who is a girl who says that he is a son of Parvati,
00:48there is a connection with this character.
00:51What is the connection you will always know.
00:54It will continue to grow.
00:57There is also a connection with his family.
01:01So this character is something like that
01:02it will slowly reveal itself.
01:04There are layers in this character.
01:06After that, it will also be released.
01:07You have seen such a character in Kum Kum.
01:10When you love Kum Kum and that is the sequence of the college.
01:15Is it something similar to that character?
01:18No, it is a character of Kum Kum.
01:21He was a straight forward, stark negative character.
01:26He didn't have anything hidden in it.
01:30He was an obsessed lover.
01:32He was a genuine man who loves Kum Kum.
01:35This character is not such a character.
01:38There are some grey shades.
01:39He will not reveal itself so quickly.
01:41You will not know what he wants to do so quickly.
01:46In this character, in your character,
01:49Yes.
01:50What does his character mean?
01:51What role of the character is negative?
01:53What role of the character is positive?
01:54This character is very difficult.
01:57How much of the character is negative.
01:59Sometimes it is negative.
02:00Sometimes it is not negative.
02:01Sometimes it is positive.
02:02This is something that will make this character interesting.
02:06When you played your career in the beginning,
02:09You were a cute-looking boy.
02:12And now you have an anti-hero type image.
02:15How did your fans explain it?
02:17How did you explain it to your fans?
02:19I didn't see my fans as well.
02:21I didn't see my fans as well.
02:23But it is a bizarre thing.
02:26You have to progress a little bit.
02:28I am 38 now.
02:31So at 38 I can't look like a college boy.
02:34Who is dancing around with young women.
02:37I don't think I am very good.
02:38I find it very frivolous.
02:40I don't think I am inside.
02:42And I was a little tired.
02:47I was a little tired of doing sweet roles.
02:49Because I remember when I went to a negative role,
02:53The directors would say,
02:54You don't think I am.
02:55How can we cast you?
02:57Now, I am growing a little.
03:00I am growing a little.
03:01I am growing a little.
03:02I am growing a little.
03:03But I am growing a little.
03:04I am growing a little.
03:05I am growing a little.
03:06So I am growing a little.
03:07I think I am growing a little.
03:08You have also done my roles on TV.
03:09So what have you come back in TV?
03:10How did your own TV plan?
03:11Yes.
03:12What have you done with TV plan?
03:15Actually I did not come back in TV.
03:16I did my daily soaps come back in 2 years.
03:19And I think,
03:20If you do not do a daily soap,
03:23If you don't do it, it doesn't happen to come back.
03:25Before that, I called the K Street Pali Hill.
03:28After that, I hosted a Fair Factor, a reality show.
03:32So, I didn't do daily soaps for a few years.
03:35Then, when the road came to Kum Kum,
03:37the road seemed very interesting.
03:39It was a one-character-centered track.
03:45When it was there, the whole story was about it.
03:49So, that was good.
03:51So, in the story, it will be different.
03:54It will be different, but it will be different.
03:57So, this is a cameo.
04:00It will be a short road, but it will be a long road.
04:04Yes, it is a cameo.
04:06It is a cameo, but it is a little long.
04:09It is not too small.
04:11This series has been a very popular.
04:14When you see a lot of characters in the beach,
04:17what you think about it,
04:18the story of the story,
04:20it will be a bit of a twist and it will be fun to see people?
04:23Or do it not have a twist?
04:27The story of the story may be good and the food may be bad.
04:31It is a risk that every production,
04:34every channel brings out a new twist,
04:36a new plot to incorporate a new drama.
04:38And sometimes it will work.
04:40Sometimes it will increase TRP,
04:42and sometimes it will increase,
04:43and sometimes it will not increase,
04:44then it will culminate the track.
04:46Do you have any series of upcoming series
04:49or any films like that?
04:50My series is for Sony Television.
04:52His name is Arsalan.
04:54I am also a negative role.
04:56His character is called Zaghfaar.
05:00It is a very different story.
05:02It is a different era.
05:04And besides that,
05:07I am also a comedy film.
05:12I have a very interesting role.
05:14It is a film comedy.
05:16It is one of those films.
05:17The other one is a Punjabi film.
05:19I am also with Rahul Dev.
05:21I am also with Mika.
05:23There are 3-4 things in the year.
05:25Do you like to play in regional films?
05:27Or do you like to play in Hollywood?
05:29It is not like that.
05:32In regional films,
05:34there are more challenges in regional films.
05:37Because you have to understand the language.
05:40You have to learn the language.
05:43It is not a language.
05:45I am also with Punjabi film.
05:47I am a Punjabi man.
05:49I am a Punjabi man.
05:51Do you have any film in South?
05:53Yes.
05:54I have a film in South,
05:55whose name is Krishna.
05:56I think it will be a good fit.
06:00I feel good.
06:02You have never seen some of those films in Bollywood.
06:08Because in other cities you have seen a lead role in R.
06:09Or in regional movies you have seen a lead role in R.
06:10Yes.
06:11I have an elected role in R.
06:12For my men I have also seen one of the lead roles in R.
06:13For my men.
06:14I have seen some of the lead roles in R.
06:15It's one of the more popular films, correct.
06:25Yes, yes.
06:26Yes, correct.
06:31Yes, correct.
06:33Correct.
06:37No, it's not a special thing.
06:40Where I look at good scripts, where I look at good roles, I look at them.
06:46Whether there are Bangla films, Telugu films, or Indian films.
06:50When you're doing a comedy film, is it going to be a shooting?
06:54Yes, it's going to be a shooting.
06:56Is it going to be released in this series?
06:58Yes, it's going to be released in this series.
07:00Is Fear Factor 2 also coming?
07:02Is it going to be host it?
07:04Yes, Manning is hosting Fear Factor 2.
07:06If you don't like it, what do you have to do?
07:10Because Fear Factor 1, when you've hosted it,
07:12People like it and anchoring you have to do it.
07:16Yes, yes.
07:17So, Fear Factor 2, why don't you do it?
07:19Fear Factor 2, I think it's going to be doing Akshay Kumar.
07:21I'm going to host it.
07:22But it doesn't have to be confirmed.
07:24Yes, it doesn't have to be confirmed.
07:25So, I don't know.
07:26I don't have to call it for Fear Factor 2.
07:28If I call it, I will do it.
07:30What do you think of Akshay Kumar?
07:34I feel like they are made for this show.
07:36Because Akshay Kumar is doing so many stunts in the world.
07:39So, if Akshay Kumar is doing it,
07:41it's a very good thing for the show.
07:43And that's what I mean,
07:45he got to get the right place in it.
07:48Thank you, Munkar.
07:50Thanks a lot.
