Preparation plays key role for Farhan Akhtar

Farhan Akhtar excels at different talents, but he is a strong believer in preparing well for whatever he does.

The actor-filmmaker-singer will soon be seen as a host of reality show “I Can Do That”, and he says for every person to say that phrase, certain preparation is a must.

At an event here, he said: “Since childhood, I have had a keen interest in films and music. It was a matter of time to get prepared. Preparation plays a significant role in life. Even in ‘I Can Do That’, these contestants get a week to prepare for their acts, so that one week is very crucial.

“Before starting film direction, I had worked as an assistant and a copy writer for three and half years. So that was something that I felt I could naturally do. I was asked by many, ‘Why don’t you act in films?’ But before ‘Rock On!!’, I didn’t feel the need to do so as I was not prepared from within.

“You need to be prepared for what all you wish to do in life. I Can Do That” will go on air on Zee TV later this month.”
