opens up on acting roles that might require him to portray
the role of a homosexual man.
In one of such controversial movies, title Games Men Play
Reloaded, he admitted getting a few negative reaction from
people for playing the role of a gay man.
Hear him:
"It doesn't get to me. Yes, I got a couple of funny
hints from the community that I must be one of
them. I don't have a problem with that. I was just
interpreting a role. But it's only natural that if the
gay community finds you attractive, they would
come after you. Having said this, I have not been
stigmatised whatsoever."
When asked how he was able to successfully play the role, he
says:
"It was tricky, but the thing is that as an actor, you
should learn to zone out and compartmentalize,
which is exactly what I did. I took myself out of
who I was and became the character I was playing.
The moment you are able to figure this out, those
things you call challenges do not exist because you
are living the character at the moment until you
switch back tom yourself."
