Moin Akhtar as Seth Manzoor Danawala from ‘Such Much’
Moin Akhtar is still at the top of his game, brilliant character actor. On a side note here’s and an excerpt from an interview of his, regarding his performance as ‘Rosie’
**
Mr Akhtar also narrated a small incident involving an American employee at the US consulate where he had gone to apply for a visa. He said usually the staff there first interviewed the applicants and then asked them to give their fingerprints, if they passed.
“When my number was called out, the lady behind the desk simply asked me to press my fingers for the imprints. When I asked her “no interview?” she said she already knew me from “Rosie.” The lady had apparently been asked to watch the serial when she was trying to learn Urdu at an institute. She said she was thoroughly impressed by my acting and also that my acting was better than Dustin Hoffman’s in “Tootsie,” the Hollywood movie on which “Rosie” was based.
