Pakistani actor, singer and model Fawad Khan, who will be next seen in Bollywood film "Kapoor & Sons", says he wants to be known as a global actor.

Asked how difficult was it for him to work in Bollywood, Fawad said: "If you feel it's not going to be difficult, then it will not be difficult for you. Difficulty comes when you have unrealistic expectations. Everybody wants to grow in life. It takes time for everything and I am getting to do great work and I am happy about it.

"I want to be known as a global actor not, just the Indian film industry although it's a great film industry. The comfort zone is there, your language is same in Hindi industry but I would like to venture off anywhere else."

Fawad, who made his Bollywood debut with "Khoobsurat" which also featured Sonam Kapoor, says he is honoured to be part of "Kapoor & Sons".

"Dharma is one of the prestigious banners in India. I am honoured and pleased to work with them. I got an opportunity to work with Ratna Pathak again in this film. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her, she has a great sense of humor. I had a great time with the entire crew."

Directed by Shakun Batra, "Kapoor & Sons" also features Rishi Kapoor, Rajat Kapoor, Sidharth Malhotra, and Alia Bhatt among others. The film is slated for a March 18 release.
