He has the horror film "Ezra" lined up, too, and unconfirmed sources have said he could play the villain in the Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif biggie "Tiger 3".
Is it time for Emraan Hashmi 2.0, finally? "I keep hearing that but I honestly don't know because I am still putting in the same effort that I always have in my work. I wanted to change things around me. Now 'Chehre' is up for release and I can say that it's a new side of me that people haven't seen. I have been lucky to get such opportunities," the actor replied.
The year has started on a bright note for Emraan. He stars in the music video of singer Jubin Nautiyal's new superhit "Lut gaye".

"I feel happy when I hear people saying there is no replacement of me when it comes to featuring in music videos. But I think if I keep doing music videos then they will definitely start looking for a replacement for me! The audience will have to wait a bit because that's the whole thing about exclusivity," said Emraan.
Talking about the song's success, Emraan said "I am still in shock! I knew this was a special song that will do well but now I have stopped keeping track because every day the views are increasing by 10 or 15 millions. It has completely gone insane!"
