Adnan Siddiqui: Collaborating with the makers of Ertugrul

Asian Network Bollywood
Contains some strong language.

Available for over a year

Actor Adnan Siddiqui tells Haroon how he landed the role of executive producer to a big-budget period Pakistani drama with the makers of the Turkish phenomena, Ertugrul. He says his success in Meray Paas Tum Ho and Yeh Mera Dil is hard to match because no other scripts are anywhere near as good. He reckons he hasn't been typecast because he's willing to take on roles that his contemporaries would shy away from. And Adnan says he has a lot to learn from young stars like Sajal Aly and Ahad Raza Mir.
