Tauqir Khan gets first Bollywood film
Talking to IANS, Tauqir Khan said, ‘This is my first Bollywood film. Prior to this, I have worked in crime petrol and some serials. When I came to Mumbai, we did not have much money, so I started acting in crime petrol, so that the house could be spent. Later, when Sania and Sumbul started getting work continuously, I quit acting to help them.
Shooting of Tauqir’s film started
Talking about his first film, Tauqir said, ‘The film is currently being shot in Nalasopara, where a slum set has been prepared. I am playing the role of an MLA in this film, who goes door-to-door to ask for votes. This film will draw the attention of the audience on the serious issue of drug addiction among the youth.
Tauqir Khan is happy with the progress of daughter Sumbul
Tauqir Khan told that he is very happy and proud to see the success of his daughter Sumbul. He said, ‘Seeing Sumbul’s progress, I become very happy and emotional. She is not only a great actress, but also very favorite for her fans. I am very happy to see his success. Every parent does not get to see such success and identity of his baby girl, so I consider myself very lucky.
Will Tauqir Khan work with daughter?
When he was asked if he would ever like to work in the film with his daughter Sumbul, Tauqir Khan politely refused. He said that he is very proud of Sumbul’s success, but he does not want to play his father’s role on screen. Tauqir said, ‘Sumbul is such a great actress that I will feel small in front of her. His acting and presence on screen is so strong that I think I will not be able to act equally.
