It is now around 80% sure that Pakistani fast bowler and famous as Rawalpindi Express Shoaib Akhtar is going to act in Hindi movie “Main aur meri Himmat”. Director Sanghamitra Chaudhary revealed this today during news interview.
Akhtar said he has watched the two recent Bollywood releases - Sanjay Leela Bhansali 's Saawariya and the Shah Rukh Khan starrer Om Shanti Om .
I have also heard about the movie Chak De India , he said.
Some time back, there were reports that Mahesh Bhatt had offered the title role to Akhtar for his home production Gangster , but things didn’t fall in place at that time and that role was played by Shiney Ahuja .
He is repotedly being paid INR 1 Crore. And today I saw him on a news channel television interview and he said that he was considering settling down in India
