Abhay Deol, who is set to make his small screen debut as a host, says he is not late for TV, it's just that it didn't feature in his scheme of things.
Abhay will be seen as a host on Zee TV's reality show "Connected Hum Tum".
"I didn't have a plan to come on TV, so there is no point of coming late to TV. It's just that I liked the show, so I gave the nod to it. I never thought that I will ever be doing a reality show or will host a show on television," the 37-year-old actor told reporters here Monday.
"It's not a question of time, it's a question of subject and project. When I came across a good project, I said yes," he added.
The show will feature six women from different walks of life with the camera constantly following them.
On the big screen, Abahy will be seen when Anand L. Rai-directed "Raanjhanaa", also starring Sonam Kapoor and southern star Dhanush, will come out June 21.
