Sooraj Pancholi on his Parents and Being Popular

    Sooraj Pancholi has been feeling on top of the world since the trailers of his film, ‘Hero’, released. The movie was released last Friday in theatres everywhere and has seen a decent start at the box office. For Sooraj, this is what he has been dreaming about for a long time. In fact, he thought he would never become an actor since the tragedy of Jiah Khan committing suicide happened two years ago. Here Sooraj tells us how he feels when kids know him on the streets and how he told his parents he was acting in a film.

    Sooraj Pancholi on people recognising him on the streets.

    Not everyone knows my name. So now when they spot me on the streets, they point and say, ‘Woh dekh Hero ja raha hai’. That feeling itself is very fulfilling.

    I had not even told my mom and dad about Hero. I waited and after a long time, when I knew I will be starting to shoot for the film, I told them that Salman sir has offered me a film.
