Barun Sobti on Shedding Romantic Hero Image: It's Been a Deliberate Effort to Do Relevant Projects
News 18Barun Sobti, who built the reputation of a romantic hero on the small screen, has now been making a conscious effort to shed that image. His early days included starring in shows like ‘Baat Hamari Pakki Hai’ and ‘Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?’. But actors depend on what kind of options they are given,” said Barun, whose role as a corrupt cop Yusuf Qureshi in his last film Halahal garnered him appreciation from all quarters. So more than what you end up doing, what defines an actor’s career is the kind of things you have said no to and it’s being a very deliberate effort I have made to stay in the zone that adds a relevant element to my career and it doesn’t mean that I am looking down or anything. And, if anyone’s reading this right now, koi bhi relevant cheez hai na toh I would always want to be in support of that so that’s the major reason I wanted to do this film.” 200 – Halla Ho, has an amazing star cast comprising Amol Palekar, Barun, Rinku Rajguru, Sahil Khattar, Saloni Batra, Indraneil Sengupta, and Upendra Limaye.
