“I am boringly heterosexual,” says master-of-wit Rahul Bose. He also happens to be a tremendous actor with a neat body of work like ‘English August’, ‘Thakshak’, ‘Mr and Mrs Iyyer’, ‘Jhankaar Beats’ and ‘Chameli’. A rugby player (He is in the National Rugby team), this 39 year old actor-social activist doesn’t hesitate to voice his opinion on what he considers to be correct. Like, he clears the air, that in spite of having a considerable clout of gay fans, he continues to be a lady’s man. And yes, he hasn’t gone for a date for the last five years. Then what exactly has he been doing? Playing games (On the field), doing some good films and lending his voice to the concerns of people affected by the monstrous Tsunami in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Rahul Bose has surely carved a niche for himself in a likable way.

He is looking forward to a big release ‘Pyaar Ke Side Effects’ where he is paired with the princess of oomph Mallika Sherawat. It is one of the eagerly-looked-forward to film for both actors have an image that has something do with being sexy. Since it’s a PNC film, the aggressive promotions have already started and it remains to be seen what kind of side effects this venture will have on Rahul’s career. As of now he is very clear that he doesn’t want to do female centric films like ‘Chameli’ and ‘15 Park Avenue’. “I want to play strong central characters which power the narrative,” he says.

IndiaGlitz lends more power to this talented actor and a super human being.
