Milind Soman says ‘nobody wants to cast him in films’ and he doesn’t know why

He was one of the most popular and loved models back in the days. He is a fitness enthusiast and even at 52, had a body to die for. We clearly are talking about Milind Soman here! He made the girls go weak at their knees when he appeared in Alisha Chinai’s music video, ‘Made in India’ and since then, he has made appearances in Bollywood movies too but very limited.

In a recent interview, Milind spoke about doing fewer films and said that the reason for him not being signed for more films is because he does not have a good network in mainstream Bollywood.

In an interview with IANS, Milind said, “Nobody wants to cast me in films, yes that is true. I do not know why, but that is the reality.”

He added, “Once in a while, film offers come to me and I do that. I am interested in performance though… I like acting. It is a well-paid job and according to some people, I am good at it.”

Explaining his less visibility in films, he said, “I think people do not associate me with the mainstream… Only the urban people (maybe). I do not have friends and network with the commercial cinema world. In every business, the network is important.”

Milind reveals that he doesn’t know too many filmmakers. “I do not know any of them (filmmakers). In fact, I do not watch films,” he said, adding, “Perhaps that is the potential reason why people do not cast me in the film. I am one of those people who love to act in the film but does not want to watch the film.”

“I think in a year, I watch maximum three films, that too superhero films,” he concluded.
