Highlights
- Pakistani singer-turned actor Ali Zafar, who garnered great applause for his comic act in Tere Bin Laden, is all set to feature in the film's sequel but only in a cameo role.
- The 31-year-old had a full-fledged role in the prequel.
- The 2010 laugh riot, directed by Abhishek Sharma was a surprise hit with Zafar and Pradhuman Singh in the lead roles.
- And now Sharma is coming up with the sequel which is interestingly titled as Tere Bin Laden 3.
- "Tere Bin Laden Part 3 is coming. Abhishek has narrated me the story...there was one character that I really liked a lot. It is a cameo but it is interesting. I only told him if he could allow him to do that role. He also got excited with this idea. So we are working on this," Zafar said.
- The first part was a humourous take on Osama Bin Laden and the upcoming film is set post Osama's death. The pre-production of the film started from May 2, which is also the death anniversary of Osama.
- Meanwhile, the Pakistani actor is quite excited about the remake of 1981 romantic-comedy Chashme Buddoor. The remake version stars Zafar, Siddharth, Divyendu Sharma, Taapsee Pannu and Rishi Kapoor. It is being directed by David Dhawan.
- "I am playing young college student in the film (Chashme Buddoor). I thought I should lose some weight as college students are slim and fit, minus muscles. I have lost lot of weight for this film. And now again, gaining weight for next film," Zafar said.
- The 31-year-old, who was honoured with the Dadasaheb Phalke award for best new talent here, said, "I think it is a big honour and I feel I am very small. I am thankful to everyone. It is a prestigious award... what big recognition than this who planted this industry. I am falling short of words."
