Saqib Saleem to star in Karan Johar’s next directorial venture



The 'Mere Dad Ki Maruti' star, Saqib Saleem, has been constantly in focus these days, with two of his Bollywood appearances lined up, one after another. The young actor will first be seen in the Y-Films production, MDKM this March, following which, he will make an appearance in a Dharma Productions short film directed by Karan Johar that will part of the Bombay Talkies movie. The film will be a tribute to the 100 years of Hindi cinema.

A source close to Saqib recently said, "Saqib is part of not one but two films with big banners- YRF and Dharma Productions. Thus Karan has been showing keen interest in mentoring him for the promotions of MDKM." The actor has been taken under Dharma Productions chief, Karan Johar’s wing. The filmmaker will personally mentor the actor and tailor him for a successful career in B-town. “Saqib will be making his media outing and thus asked Karan the do's and don't's. Karan who is an ace mentor and gave Saqib tips on how he should not be conscious while giving  interviews to the media and how he should present himself in public," said the source, adding, "It is really sweet of him to help Saqib. For a new-comer who is a complete outsider, this is a great way to understand the industry better. Everyone has seen how well the debutants of Karan's previous film did. Now, Saqib is looked at in exactly the same manner".

While Mere Dad Ki Maruti is scheduled to hit cinema screens on the 15th of March, 2013, Bombay Talkies will release on the 3rd of May.
