Hijacker in Neerja (Jim Sarbh)

I just watched Neerja on Netflix. I really enjoyed it. Sonam did a really good job to my surprise..definitely her best performance. The supporting cast was awesome..the hijackers in particular. However, the actor who stood out the most for me was the guy who played Khalil. I had to look up his name..and it's Jim Sarbh. Wow, what a performance! I feel he was arguably the best performer in the entire movie. I had no idea the terrorists were going to be this good because everyone has mostly talked about Sonam when it comes to this movie..but, I was blown away by the main two hijackers.The one playing Khalil was so effortlessly brilliant though. I literally thought they somehow got an Arab actor to play the role. 😆 Their Arabic seemed so fluent as well.

He's very talented..if I m not wrong he's dating Kalki so hoping to see him relavent in btown and doesn't get lost among the crowd like many others in the past.

I loved Jim ...he was brilliant in the movie, he did creep me out wid his madness

I had a short crush on him & read up a lot on him after I watched him because he impressed me sooo much!!! He's super-talented! More theatre at heart & loves the craft etc.. The thing that struck me was that he didn't sound pretentious at all while saying all this. His family is one do the established art families of the country, they founded either the first/most known art gallery or something & the interviewer took the camera through his family house & I had a major fit of envy-- Daaamnnn all that stunning art hanging on the walls!! Raza, Mirza, Gujral, Raja Ravi Verma! <3

He seems very intelligent, very creative, and just so hot! His mad act in Neerja was the highlight of the entire film for me! I hope he does some good movies because I would like to watch him more onscreen.

Honestly I though he was Arabic in real life

His and Shabana were the best performances in the film, Sonam was good but Jim was captivating. Hope he gets more work.

MEB - That's a new information about him. He does look like arty , intense and carelessly handsome in his off screen pics.
I hope he doesn't get typecast as psycho villian. Is there any news about his upcoming projects?
