Bollywood has always welcomed Pakistani artists wholeheartedly. After Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Atif Aslam now it’s time for Ali Zafar who is making his debut in Bollywood. Interestingly, this handsome singer is not just singing but making his acting debut with ‘Tere Bin Laden’.
“India has always been kind to Pakistani artists. Art is like love and Indians’ heart is full of love. I have been getting good response from Bollywood. Indian Bollywood music is great. Music directors like Vishal Shekhar, Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy are very talented,” says Ali who is in Mumbai to promote his forthcoming film tongue-in-cheek comedy ‘Tere Bin Laden’.

Ali reveals that ‘Khuda Ke Liye’ was supposed to be his first Bollywood film but because of his dates he couldn’t be part of it. While in ‘TBL’, he plays a young and ambitious Pakistani news reporter who wants to move to the United States. “It’s about how this guy gets an idea of creating a fake Osama, and then humour unfolds. It’s a hysterical film. I was bit apprehensive about it when I heard the title as Osama has very threatening impression around him but when I heard the story, I loved it. It has a totally different perspective,” reveals Ali

Interestingly, Ali is a big fan of Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan and Naseeruddin Shah. When asked about his favourite actress he said, “I like Shabana Azmi, Tabu and Kajol.” But he has a different ambition when it comes to romancing a Bollywood babe. “I find Kareena and Katrina extremely talented.”
Being a huge fan of Hindi films, Ali Zafar reveals his wish list. “I would love to do films like ‘Do Aur Do Paanch’ and ‘Mr India’. I love ‘Mr. India’ and would love to be part of its remake. I want to do an action hero or superhero character like Mr India.” He signs off
