Raghu
Ram of Roadies fame has caught the
attention of film makers. He is being offered
several big banner films with roles similar
to his manifestation in Roadies.
Now
the buzz is that he is being approached
to act in films. We get to hear from the
horse’s mouth that he was approached by
T-Series films, Dharma Productions, Pritish
Nandy Communications and few independent
film makers.
Raghu informs, “Yes, I am approached to
act in films. I have been getting acting
offers since the past six months but the
problem is that I do not have time. I am
quite tied up with a lot of work in MTV
so there is no time for acting. May be some
day you will see me acting but it is not
a career option for me. My job is being
behind the scenes, working on the concepts
and ideas for shows. I will take up a role
only if it interests me and if I take it
up I will do it the way I do my other jobs.”
Talking about the kind of roles he is offered,
he said, “I am offered different kinds of
roles. Some of the roles that I am offered
are stereotype roles where my character
is that of an abusive person. Such roles
do not cater to my interest. Just because
I am seen abusing on Roadies, doesn’t
mean that it is my personality. There is
a motive, a task that I do on the show and
people should look beyond my abusive language.”
When asked if he is comfortable with acting,
he said, “Earlier I was not comfortable
doing the audition segment but here I am.
I was not even comfortable with the stunts
that I do in the show till I did it. So
you never know whether you can do it or
not until you try it.”
