Cheerful, amiable, quick and thorough,
endlessly patient for the retakes, that is what describes Emraan Hashmi. He is
that rare species in Bollywood who does not wear the halo of stardom around
him. Giving multiple hits to the Bollywood industry, Gangster, Once Upon a Time
in Mumbai, Murder, Raaz to name a few, A-list stardom might have escaped him,
but he is more or less steady at the box office.
Choosing to do the title role in Azhar, the biopic on the former captain of the Indian cricket team, Mohammed Azharuddin, Emraan wanted to move away from what he’d been doing saying, “I needed the challenge.” Directed by Tony D'Souza, the movie is based on the life Azharuddin, who was implicated in a cricket match-fixing scandal in 2000, and banned by BCCI for life.

Apart from this his
future project includes Raaz 4 which is a sequel of his debut hit movie
Raaz. Brushing off the slight melancholy, he rues in reference to films,
“I fear flops.” The twinkle is back in his eyes when he expands, “Anyone who
says otherwise is a liar. You spend so much time on a film. Your heart and soul
has gone into it and then it doesn’t work out. Everyone fears a flop.”
