Shreyas Talpade set to go places

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,November 28 2005]

Shreyas Talpade may not be a household name yet despite the success of Nagesh Kukunoor's "Iqbal".

But, going by the response he has been receiving from fans and critics alike at the ongoing 36th International Film Festival of India (IFFI), he is well on course to becoming one.

The young man is enjoying every minute of his moment in the Goa sun without letting it go to his head.

"I do want to do mainstream Hindi cinema, but more important than that, I want to do good films. At this stage of my career, I can afford to experiment," he says, belying his inexperience in the business.

Talpade, a Marathi stage actor, has two films in the festival - "Iqbal" in the competition and English-language NRI-produced film "The Hangman" in the Cinema of the World section.

Expect more from the guy.
