Luke Kenny: Angrez roles are not for me

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,April 01 2013]

Luke Kenny who disappeared from the acting scene after ‘Rock On’ has suddenly bounced back with his latest India's first ever Zombie-Genre film 'Rise Of The Zombie' which is creating lots of curiosity these days. Mainly because Saif Ali Khan's 'Go Goa Gone' is also a Zombie Genre comedy film and is geared up for its release too.

On being asked about his stay-away from Bollywood, Luke replied, If you have been cast in a particular character and you look certain way, you are bound to do only those kind of roles. And me because of the way I look, I didn't want to play the Angrez (Foreigner) every time. And I didn't want to play a 'Music-Role' every time. After Rock On, I was offered to play a Musician's role every time. Or else, I was offered to play 'Angrez' (Foreigner), But Rock On never positioned me as a Foreigner, So why play a Foreigner's role? Neil Nitin Mukesh looks more Foreigner than I do, but no one positions him as 'Angrez' in their films?

‘Rise Of The Zombie’ is co-written, produced and co-directed by Luke Kenny along with Devaki Singh and the film releases this April 5th all over. We hope Luke re-starts his acting career with this one
