Arbaaz just wants to work

-

Arbaaz Khan hasn’t had the same career path as his superstar brother Salman Khan, but the actor-producer wasn’t expecting to.

“I started my career as a negative actor. If I had illusions about myself that I am the next romantic hero, I would have [kept waiting] for that,” Khan said.

“I am pretty much sorted in my personalit­y, which is more suited for the second lead, grey shades, and there is so much of work in that. Why does everybody have to be a romantic hero?” he added.

Khan has featured in films such as Daraar, Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya, Hello Brother, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya and Dabangg.

“I still get work. It has been 20 years [in the industry] and I am still working. There is always a need for actors like me. I am happy to be busy to work and explore,” Khan said.

“Maybe I didn’t become a huge star, but still I am happy. I just wanted to work and I am happy that I am getting work,” he added.

Khan said actors need to be mentally strong to deal with the pressures of the industry.
