Emraan Hashmi is riding high on the success of his recent films. The actor who has achieved the feat of impressing critics and attracting audience, recently confessed that he never thought of being an actor - "I was nobody when 'Murder' clicked. Actually, I never wanted to be an actor. I remember doing my first film Footpath (2003) just for a lark. It was like a summer job for me. I wasn't playing the lead and the film turned out to be a flop. Even then, it gave me more than I had imagined," said Emraan about the start of his career.

He added that choosing acting as a career came after a lot of struggle, "I heard a lot of dissent myself, even at the office. I overheard things like 'Yeh actor kaise ban raha hai, he can’t dance, his acting is questionable.' I knew I wasn't perceived as a traditional hero but I also understood I had created a certain slot for myself," added Emraan who at that point of time was considered as the boldest actor. 

Emraan furthur added, "At the time, I had only two options. I could have changed tracks and developed some weird aspiration that I want to become another Shah Rukh Khan, falling flat on my face. Else I could have worked on becoming a unique brand myself. Fortunately, I chose the latter," stated Emraan. 

With the way his career begun, to where he has reached now......We must say.....Way to go Emraan!
