New Delhi: After building a successful career in Bollywood, singer-actor Ali Zafar has decided to bring his experience back home and concentrate on Pakistani films.
The 34-year-old Kill Dil star, who has starred in five films, including critically acclaimed Tere Bin Laden, said he wants to bring the Pakistani film industry to the international level.
“It’s time to take my experience back home and use it for Pakistani film industry and take Pakistan international. I have done five films here and I feel I should use my experience there. I feel Pakistani film industry needs us,” Zafar said.
The actor is also making his debut as a director for his untitled film in Lollywood (an unofficial name used for Pakistani film industry) and in order to concentrate on the movie he has rejected many Bollywood films.
“It is a very special year for me. I just had a daughter, shifted to a new house and I’m making a film in Pakistan in beautiful northern areas of Pakistan. It’s a dream project. I have not rejected films here, I have just excused myself from them,” he said.
Zafar added that he is not a typical red carpet person, although he feels great to be awarded.
Having already been crowned as the ‘Most Stylish Import’, the singer-actor had also bagged the title of Delhi’s most stylish import on May 2.
