His last release ‘Delhi Belly’ might have been a runaway hit but Imran Khan is still a bundle of nerves as he readies for ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’ and says, “Even if your last film is a hit, that doesn’t guarantee that your next film will be a hit too. You have to prove yourself with every film because you are as good as your last film. Even for the biggest of stars in Bollywood, every film counts. The pressure to deliver a hit is exactly the same with every film – it doesn’t matter whether you have given a hit or a flop in the past.”
Imran featured as a journalist in the offbeat adult comedy ‘Delhi Belly’ and has now donned quite a different avatar in ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’, made under Yash Raj Films. In the film, which also stars Katrina Kaif and Ali Zafar, the 28-year-old plays a Dehradun boy who looks for a bride for his brother and ends up falling in love with the same girl.
In the film, helmed by newcomer Ali Abbas Zafar, Imran is paired with Katrina – his most inspiring co-star so far! “Katrina inspires me a lot. The level of dedication she has for her work is unbelievable. For a girl, who came here not knowing a word of Hindi, she speaks clean, proper Hindi today. The way she has worked on that is incredible,” he said. “The way she works on her scene, her dialogues, her dance, her body, her fitness, the kind of energy she has and the kind of effort she puts in is more than any other co-star that I have worked with. It’s honestly more than my level of dedication too. It’s quite close to Aamir’s dedication.”
