He has played characters of all hues but says he wonders why directors don't imagine him in a romantic role.
In 바카라Haddi바카라, director Akshat Ajay Sharma바카라s debut film, Ayyub is playing the love interest to Nawazuddin Siddiqui바카라s transgender character.
Ayyub, who has established himself as a versatile performer, said he was excited when Sharma offered him a role with a romantic arc.
바카라I was excited about that (in 바카라바카라). I was like 바카라Yaar, koi to mujhe romantic role me dekh raha hai' (I was like at least someone imagined me in a romantic role). I thought it would be fun,바카라 Ayyub, who most recently wowed critics with his turn as a principled editor in Hansal Mehta바카라s 바카라Scoop바카라, told PTI .
Asked whether he ever wondered why such roles don바카라t come his way, the actor said, 바카라Even I want to know. Why not? I would love to play a romantic character.바카라
And if need be, he is ready to dance around the trees as well, he joked.
바카라Dancing around the trees is not the only way to do a romantic story but if it is interesting, 바카라vo bhi kar lenge바카라 (will do that also)바카라
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who plays the antagonist in the film and sat down for the interview with Ayyub and Sharma, quipped that the actor would dance around the trees only if the story is set in Switzerland.
Sharma, on his part, said he had fun directing a romantic scene between Siddiqui and Ayyub in the movie.
Ayyub, 39, said he was happy with the response to the film바카라s romantic number 바카라Beparda바카라 after he shared it on social media. He now hopes the film garners a similar reaction.
"Haddi", currently streaming on ZEE5, is a revenge drama that explores the "intoxicating world of vengeance, violence and power".
Sushmita Sen-starrer 바카라Taali바카라, 바카라Made In Heaven바카라 and now 바카라Haddi바카라, transgender stories are finding representation in the mainstream. Ayyub said inclusivity is always a gradual process.
바카라I have always felt that if you talk about inclusivity by introducing a special character, then it is half baked. But when you take a normal story바카라 Like if I am showing three people in the society and one of them is transgender and the other two are boy or girl and they are just normal friends, I feel it is more inclusive than showing how others behave towards that one person. And it has begun,바카라 he said.
The actor said the length of his role in the movie may not be long, but his character adds a lot to the story.
바카라It was an important character and an important film that he (Sharma) was making and I was getting an opportunity to work with them so that was also a factor when I was signing the film. I thought I would enjoy myself,바카라 Ayyub added.
