Shoaib Actor


The title is not a misnomer. It's only about the Pakistani paceman's recent assignments. Shoaib Akthar extended his stay in India after the recent Indo-Pak series. This is mainly due to the fact that he is getting lot of offers from the Bollywood. In another four to five months we might see him in the big screen. On asked about his role he said, "I don't want to tell lies. Yes, I'm getting offers to act in the film. There are more than a few. More than five to be exact(?). I will think about these offers and will make the right decision, soon". He also denied the reports of quitting international cricket for acting films. He thanked Mahesh Butt for his kind offers and identifying the talent within him. He also said that his ultimate aim was to open a school for the orphans. So, it will be another head-ache for the PCB (not for Akthar), as he is willing to manage both film and cricketing career. So let's be ready to get bowled over by Akthar in a different arena.
