Not Choosy About Acting In Bollywood Films: Prabhudheva

Prabhudeva says he is not intentionally picky about acting in Hindi films but wants to do good movies. While he has directed quite a few Hindi films, like Wanted, Rowdy Rathore and Singh is Bliing, Prabhudeva's acting appearances have been less, restricted to ABCD franchise.

On the other hand, he has acted in many South Indian movies right from the early '90s.

When asked if he is choosy about Hindi films, Prabhudheva said, "Nothing like that. I won't say I am choosy but I want to do good films. That's my only focus. And good films are coming to me. So as of now I am happy about it."

The 43-year-old Action Jackson helmer wears many hats, that of a dancer, choreographer, actor and recently, even a producer.

But Prabhudeva says he just considers himself to be a part of the film industry first. "When people say I am a good actor, I don't know whether to believe it. I just say, 'Thank you'. I have acted in many movies in South. In the back of my mind, everything is there, that I am a dancer, then director, then actor. But I consider myself a part of the film industry first."

Prabhudeva says while he is excited and nervous how the film will be received, he is never bothered by criticism beyond a certain extent. "It (criticism) has become a part of our job. It will affect but it goes. Somebody comes and tells 'you were bad', because we are not a Buddha, you do feel bad and then ok, you move on."

Directed by AL Vijay, the film is scheduled to release on October 7 across three languages, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
