Two Afghan teenagers Fawad Mohammadi and Jawanmard Paiz whose film Buzkashi Boys was recently nominated at the Oscars,capturing the attention of Hollywood for their impressive acting,look up to Indian superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Sunny Deol as their idols.
I watch Indian movies mainly because of Shah Rukh Khan, Jawanmard Paiz told PTI in an interview,while his co-actor Fawad Mohammadi identified Sunny Deol as his role model and favourite actor.
The two,along with the cast of the film,were recently in Los Angeles for the Oscars.
Though the last Indian movie he watched was Salman Khans Dabaang 2,Jawanmard said he watches Bollywood movies just to watch Shah Rukh Khan. He is the best actor. Each and every role of his is very impressive, he said.
His (Sunny Deols) acting is superb. Whatever he does is superb, Fawad said. The teen actors said they would like to work in Bollywood.
