Actor Emraan Hashmi who drew plaudits for his role in “Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai”, says that the risks he took in his career have paid off. “I always wanted to play versatile characters; it’s just that I got slotted. I was only taking up films that were offered to me,” Emraan said on the sidelines of a promotional event for the forthcoming film “Ghanchakkar”. “But when filmmakers start taking risks seeing the versatility… after seeing the turning point… the turning point in my career being ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai’, people started thinking beyond the image… that I can do other films beyond the typical noir cinema of 2009…things really changed,” said Emraan.
