Life In a Metro has been released last Friday and Raqeeb is lined up for next Friday. In Life in a Metro, Sharman plays the character Rahul, who works in a call center. In Raqeeb, he is playing the character of a play boy who wants to live his life to the fullest. Sharman felt that the story of the film was intuitive. Indya.com reports:
On playing a different role in Raqeeb, Sharman says, "It was not a deliberate attempt to act in a serious film. I found the subject intuitive. My character is that of a businessman, who is connected with Rahul Khanna. Our relation is not that of business associates. We are good friends and I try to bring Tanushree close to him. I am playing a passionate guy, who likes to live his life to the fullest. There is no heroine opposite me and I play a man of many women."
Sharman has always been very choosy in selecting his roles and has never featured in a solo hero project. "If a character does not excite me, even if the script is great, I may not go for it and vice versa. I have not yet found a script with a solo hero subject exciting. I hope I will get one very soon.
Sharman Joshi has been acting in films since 1999. Within eight years, he has made a good reputation in Bollywood. He has done comedy and mainstream cinemas but his comedy roles made him a known face to the Hindi movie goers. Son of famous Gujarati theatre actor, writer, and director Arvind Joshi, Sharman started with a small role in critically acclaimed movie, Godmother. It won six national awards. In 2001, Sharman Joshi landed with his first movie as a hero; Style. The movie did not do well but Sharman’s comedy acting was very much appreciated. A sequel of the movie, Excuse Me was released in 2003. Sharman Joshi got audience’s attention after his performance in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Rang De Basanti and Golmaal.
A good actor is never afraid of doing new roles. It is a great risk but worth taking. Sharman Joshi has taken that risk in 2007 and I am confident that audience will enjoy Sharman Joshi in Raqeeb.
