Mumbai, June 4 -- Despite delivering hits like Rang De Basanti (2006), Golmaal (2006), Life In A Metro (2007) and three Idiots (2009) within the past, actor Sharman Joshi's schedule is somehow never choked with films. He made his debut over a decade ago with Godmother (1999). And now, the actor is finally playing the solo male lead in Rajesh Mapuskar's Ferrari Ki Sawaari.
Has it been a frustrating wait? "I'd rather have a look at things positively and stay up for the best offers than rush. I'M in no hurry to enroll a stack of films," he says. The impending film, which releases on June 15, will see him play the role of a dad.
And luckily, Sharman's real life experiences as a father came in handy for the film. "I MAY understand the character's psyche easily," he adds. But bagging this role was not as easy. The actor admits that it was quite a tricky task.
"While engaged on 3 Idiots, Rajesh had spoken of Ferrari Ki Sawaari. I heard the script and fell in love with it. In fact, I DID NOT mind facing several auditions (40 to be precise) simply to be a part of the film," says Sharman, who shares screen space with Boman Irani within the film.
At the similar time, looking convincing as a Parsi man named Rusy, was what he found 'extremely challenging'. "SO FAR AS the appearences go, I gave the look of a Parsi man. But I needed to work at the accent and the body language. Things have worked out well," says the actor, smiling. On the end of this year, Sharman will start shooting for his next director Tanuja Chandra's Chitthiyan, a movie which have been written by producer-filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra. "IT IS A very gripping love story and was produced by Vinod Chopra Films," says the actor.
