Seven Questions I'd Like To Ask Imran Khan
It's been five years since his Bollywood journey as the leading man saw the light of the day. But unfortunately, Imran Khan has hardly had a couple of successful films to his credit.
While everyone (well, only those who genuinely care for the chap) wonders what's exactly missing, I have a different set of queries for this young Khan.
Here are my top seven questions to you, Imran. Would be really glad if you happen to change your mood and mind, and brace yourself up for an answering mode.
1) HOW DO YOU STILL MANAGE TO GRAB FILMS?
True that your work kitty is not the kinds one can really boast of, but how, exactly how is it reasonably possible that filmmakers still risk their dear money on you? Except for the forthcoming KJo venture, Gori Tere Pyaar Mein, you hardly have lapped up a couple of films. But how?
2) ARE YOU GOING TO JOIN AN ACTING SCHOOL ANYTIME NOW?
Seriously Imran, don't you watch and re-watch your movies and get a cue that it's high time you underwent some professional training before signing on your next project? At least for the sake of those who dare buying tickets for your films only in the hope to get a better cinematic experience next time around?
3) HAVEN'T YOU REALIZED THAT MULTI-STARRERS SHOULD ONLY BE YOUR PICKS NOW?
Simply jog your memory and it won't be as tough to realize that only a film with a 'houseful cast' has worked like magic to your otherwise unexciting and flat filmography. Your debut is a good enough hint. (Okay, they were not well known actors alright, but the gang was huge enough for the viewers to not keep their eyes and attention glued only to you). What say?
4) ISN'T IT ONLY YOUR MAAMU'S MIDAS TOUCH THAT WORKS IN YOUR FAVOR?
The world knows what I mean here. If you still need me to fill you up, here you go – Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na and Delhi Belly. Both films had Aamir Khan's super smart mind behind them. Also, while we are on it, let me remind you – co-incidentally, both films were multi-starrers.
5) DO YOU REALLY THINK KAREENA WILL BE YOUR LUCKY CHARM FOR THE SECOND TIME AS WELL?
Your last outing with Kareena Kapoor Khan, the 2012 rom-com Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, garnered decent commercial points at the box-office. That indeed was a much needed success in your slim-paced career back then. Post that, your filmi path again had to swallow the bitter pills of criticism and failure. So that brings this question to my mind – is teaming up with Bebo yet again an upshot of a conscious attempt to recoup that fame?
6) WHY DON'T YOU ACCEPT THAT A BLOCKBUSTER BEGINNING AND A B-TOWN CONNECTION AREN'T ENOUGH TO GET GOING HERE?
Well, well... there are bigger things than just these two, to delight in a sound and steady career in the world of films. I hope you now get what I meant by suggesting you to put your name down for an acting course.
7) ISN'T IT TIME YOU TOO SHOULD GET INVOLVED IN A CONTROVERSY?
Even the biggest and the top most stars readily create some spicy controversies around their upcoming films. The secret is as clear as day – the audiences like the smoke as much as they enjoy the fire that follows. Whereas, your public image is too neat and clean to get the film-junkies excited about your offerings. Get your skates on, Immy. Why don't you also try to give it a shot and see for yourself if it actually proves to be an 'act of wisdom' in your case as well?
