“They don’t typecast me; I have not done the role of a gateman for a long time. Let’s say I started with that, and as time goes on they saw other potential in me and I got cast for other roles too. I have hardly done the role of a gateman say in about five to 10 years now.”

The actor also said that the role of a gateman was not the role that brought him into limelight.

“Welcome to South, back from South and Agony of South, were movies that started trending after seven years of release. Surprisingly, the part ‘Gerrara Here’ was not part of the script; I just had to spice the script up. It was after that, that I became ambassador for one of the top telecommunication company. And I also did several commercials for DSTV, followed by other endorsements.”
