I was typecast: Zayed Khan

Zayed Khan, known for multi-starrer films like "Main Hoon Na", "Dus (2005)" and "Shaadi No. 1", says he was typecast in the film industry.

Zayed, whose film career spans over a decade, told reporters: "My acting career had ups and downs. It's been a mix of everything. I was typecast. I was young and I didn't know many things. I was working in big banner multi-starrer films. I didn't realise I was being typecast."

The actor is currently promoting "Sharafat Gayi Tel Lene".

"I took a break from acting and l kept myself busy. Now, I am working in this film which is not a big banner film. I loved the script that's why I chose to this film," he said.

Directed by Gurmmeet Singh, the movie also features Tina Desai and Rannvijay Singha.

Zayed essays the role of a Delhi guy who finds himself embroiled in a situation involving the underworld.

He said: "I am quite thrilled and excited about the film. It is quite an unusual concept. I hope the audience enjoys watching the film".
