Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who is making his acting debut with the film The Dark Side Of Life: Mumbai City, helmed by Tariq Khan, says the director gets all the credit for pushing him into this new role.
Bhatt feels Tariq is a good and a decent human being. He came to him with this role, and insisted that he take it up. He has always supported new and honest talent, and Tariq is one such guy. He liked him immediately as he came straight to the point in a very simple manner.
Tariq explained the character to him of this Muslim father, who lives alone and his son lives in the US. He keeps a Hindu boy in his house as a tenant. According to Bhatt, Tariq has treated this relationship very sensitively, especially in a city where people reach the point of giving up on life and commit suicide. He said the movie has a message for such people.
Suicide is 21st century's self-generated disease. This is a very unusual plot and handled beautifully. Filmmakers don���������t make films like this as they just cannot get over the entertainment genre. So when someone comes up with a different kind of cinema, it is essential that people support him.
