Actor Jimmy Shergil says he is not under pressure to pull in the crowds for his forthcoming film "Darr@ The Mall" because the script of the horror drama is so good that it will perform that role.

He said: "It's a very unusual film and it's the script that made me do the film. I hope the audience also enjoy watching it," Jimmy, known for his performances in films like "...Yahaan" and "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster", told reporters.

"I don't feel the pressure at all as I am not considered as an actor who can bring the crowd. But the script of the film is certainly interesting, which will pull the audience to the theatres. So as an actor I don't feel the box-office pressure,"

Directed by Pawan Kirpalani, "Darr @ The Mall" also features Nushrat Bharucha and Asif Basra, among others, and is slated for a Feb 21 release.
