Actor Emraan Hashmi, who is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Baadshaho, has stated that he is not keen to be part of another instalment of Raaz or Murder franchise and wants to feature in films that reflect his thinking. The actors stated that earlier he was saying yes to every project that was being offered to him as he didn’t want to it at home but now he is focused on good stories.
"There was a phase when I was doing whatever was being offered to me without doing any analysis. At that time, I didn't want to sit at home and keep on working. But at this moment, I am very focused on good stories, and don't want to do film just for the heck of it," Emraan said at an event here on Tuesday.
"I am not the same person I was five or six years back. So, when people ask me if I will do Raaz or Murder, I don't think I will get into that. I would like to get into films that reflect my thinking," he added.
The actor was in the national capital to promote his forthcoming project "Baadshaho" along with Ajay Devgn, Esha Gupta and Ileana D'Cruz.
Directed by Milan Luthria, Baadshaho is set against the backdrop of Emergency (1975-1977). It narrates a fictional story of six people who try to bring a change in their destiny by pulling of a heist.
Luthria also praised Emraan for his dedication, and said that he is confident that his character in "Baadshaho" will the "most entertaining" in his career.
"Emraan is a mix of instinct and deep thinking. He doesn't show it to others, but I know that he puts in a lot of effort to prepare for the roleaI can say with confidence that character in the film will the most entertaining in his career," said the director.
Baadshaho is all set to hit the screens on September 1.
