Sohum Shah wants to only play edgy characters
Sohum Shah, a producer-actor, is overjoyed by his OTT series’ recent success. “For me success and failure has never been my point of focus. For me it’s more about what that particular project will give me as a performer. Be it Big Bull or Maharani it’s the thrill these roles brought along. They made me go out of my way to create characters like Viren Shah and chief minister Bheema Bharti. As an actor I want to play edgy characters else I’m equally happy being a producer,” says the Simran and Talvar actor.
Shah believes that the prevailing nepotism is to blame for his critically praised movie Tummbad’s poor box office performance. “I think it was destined to meet such fate. Uska ultimate yahi hona tha because no big names were associated with it… Na koi bada star…na bada banner…see nepotism hai aur rahega… None can deny that. When I joined this industry, I was prepared that nepotism toh hoga hi. When I chose this line, I had to accept it and just continue doing my job with best efforts. But the kind of views the film garnered on OTT platform made me absolutely proud and convinced that my film was among the best projects till date.”
Shah has a tonne of more projects planned both as a maker and an actor.
