Rohit Roy calls Emraan Hashmi 'easiest actors to direct'

Actor-director Rohit Roy shares high praise for Emraan Hashmi's work ethic after directing him in an ad, calling him a "breath of fresh air."

"definitely one of the easiest actors to direct - Rohit Roy"

​Mumbai, March 3 Actor Rohit Roy called Emraan Hashmi one of the "easiest actors to direct" after working with him in an advertisement.

Dropping an appreciation post for the 'HAQ' actor on social media, Rohit called him a breath of fresh air as someone with an impressive work ethic.

He revealed that they even ended up packing up before time.

Posting a photo with Emraan on his official Insta handle, Rohit wrote on the photo-sharing app, "Just a simple appreciation post for a friend and colleague who's definitely one of the easiest actors to direct .. I have acted alongside him in Mumbai Saga and have seen him up close on set but while directing him in an ad film, I realised what an amazing work ethic he posseses. Was like a breath of fresh air. Before we knew it, we had shot 3 films and packed up before time! All my love @therealemraan ! (sic)."

It must be noted that Rohit and Emraan have earlier shared screen space in the 2021 crime entertainer, "Mumbai Saga," which further saw Kajal Aggarwal, Mahesh Manjrekar, Anjana Sukhani, Prateik Babbar, Samir Soni, Amole Gupte, and Gulshan Grover in key roles.

Made under the direction of Sanjay Gupta, the project was set against the backdrop of the '80s and '90s Mumbai and talks about the changing phases of the city amidst closing mills to make malls and other high-rise buildings.

On the professional front, Emraan will soon be seen sharing screen space with Adivi Sesh, Wamiqa Gabbi and Madhu Shalini in the highly talked about spy action thriller "G2".

The movie, which is a sequel to the 2018 release "Goodachari," will have Adivi Sesh reprising his role from the original drama.

Backed by the banners People Media Factory, Abhishek Agarwal Arts, and AK Entertainments, "G2" is slated to reach the cinema halls on 1 May.

Mumbai Saga was a decent watch. Good to see the camaraderie between actors off-screen as well. When co-stars respect each other, it shows in the final product.

As someone who works in production, packing up before time is a dream! Sounds like a very efficient shoot. More power to such collaborations.

Honestly, while I appreciate the praise, I wish Rohit Roy would focus more on his own acting projects. He's a good actor himself and we'd like to see him more often on screen, not just directing ads.

Emraan Hashmi's journey from the "serial kisser" image to a serious actor in films like Tigers and now a spy thriller is impressive. Hard work pays off. All the best for G2!

Goodachari was a surprise hit. Hoping G2 lives up to the hype. The cast looks promising with Emraan and Adivi Sesh together. May 1st is marked on my calendar! 👍
