Actor Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, known for his versatility and impactful performances, has expressed his desire to portray renowned literary figures such as Sahir Ludhianvi, Safdar Hashmi, or Majaz. With a strong background in theatre and a deep love for literature, Ayyub sees these roles as a great opportunity to showcase his talent and pay homage to these iconic personalities.
While Ayyub has been receiving praise for his role as Imran Siddiqui, a principled writer-editor, in the film “Scoop” directed by Hansal Mehta, he hopes to be offered more diverse and respectful roles in the future. He wishes that filmmakers would envision him beyond the typecasting tendencies he has encountered, particularly after the success of his character in the popular film “Raanjhanaa,” which garnered widespread appreciation, especially from audiences in the Hindi heartland.
In his aspiration to explore literary adaptations, Ayyub believes that these roles would not only challenge him as an actor but also allow him to delve deeper into the rich cultural and intellectual landscape that these literary figures embody. He aims to bring their stories to life on the screen with authenticity and passion.
