KARNATAKA :
Comedian Ahmed Shariff will soon be seen in the upcoming Kannada film, Humble Politician Nograj, which stars Danish Sait as a manipulative politician.
Telling us more about this, Ahmed says, “I went for the audition two weeks ago after seeing the ads, and thought that I fared badly because the lines were in Kannada, and I am not a native Kannada speaker. However, they liked how I acted and I got a call when I was in Hyderabad for a show. I still don’t know the role that I will be offered.”
He added that he will be going for a screen-test soon. Ask him if his being a comedian helped him get the role and he says, “Not at all. I stood in line with hundreds of people. There was no special privilege.”
