In his recent interview with IANS Suniel Shetty shared his way of working, “my problemis not being typecast my problem is playing safe. It is not the subject thataffects me as much as the banners you choose to go with like, I will only workwith ABC, ‘who’s the director? that means you don’t have your own judgment. Keepaside Ayushmann and Tiger from that lot because they have gone with subjects,directors and not just gone with banners”.
Accordingto him, the new generation actors like Tiger Shroff and Ayushmann Khurrana havecreated a place for them by sticking to a particular kind of cinema. “ I guessover a period of time, whether it is Ayushmann Khurrana or tiger Shroff theywill also start experimenting. What’s very important is to get an image andthey have a definite image for themselves. These two names can only beappreciated, hats off to them”, Shetty adds.
His takeon the new generation, celebs are that they need to create their own unique styleto work. According to him if an actor won’t take any ‘risk’ then he or she isnot an actor. Reciting this he recalls his failure and said, “there was aSuniel Shetty who failed after a few years because he believed in the subjectbut the marketing field”.
