Amar Singh forays into Malayalam film industry

Amar Singh forays into Malayalam film industry

KOCHI, May 2: Former General Secretary of Samajwadi Party Amar Singh will be essaying the role of a Hindustani Classical singer in Malayalam film Bombay Mittai, which would also feature noted actress Dimple Kapadia.

The film, which began its shooting today, also has actor dancer, Neelambari Perumal, daughter of Sri Lankan Tamil leader and former chief of the North East Provincial council of the country Vardaraja Perumal. Talking to reporters here, Singh said he was not “living in fool’s paradise” to compare himself with Bollywood superstars Amitabh Bachchan or Shahrukh Khan.“I know my limitations. I don’t want to live in a fool’s paradise. Everyone has their niche and forte. They cannot become Amar Singh,” he said.

Singh said he was excited to act along with Dimple, who essays the role of his wife. When he was young he would not miss out any movie of the actress and preferred to watch her films rather than attend law lectures, he said. Directed by Ummer Karikkad, Mumbai Mittai is a humorous take at youth who believe in superstition. The film, which also stars Jagathy Sreekumar, Vinu Mohan, Harisree Ashokan, is expected to be dubbed in Hindi as well. (PTI)
