Saqib finds it 'interesting' to sport moustache

Actor Saqib Saleem had to grow a moustache for his maiden digital project. He says since he had never sported one before, it was interesting to have the facial hair.

The "Race 3" actor will play a "dark but honest" character in ZEE5's show "Rangbaaz".

"To be honest, I have never had a moustache in my life. So just to have that, was very interesting. I couldn't recognise myself for a few days. I think as an actor, it did put me in a different space," Saqib told IANS.

Talking more about his character, he shared: "Although the process was very interesting, I made sure that I stopped working out because my character wasn't supposed to look very muscular. I did a lot of cardio because there are different phases in the show."

"I have to look like a man of different ages at different times. I wanted to make sure that I looked like that. My character is a gangster. There are shades of grey, but you will definitely find some heart in the character," he added.
