Pakistani singer turned actor, Ali Zafar is making his Bollywood debut with the movie ‘Tere Bin Laden’. He was initially reluctant to take the movie, fearing it would hurt sentiments of people.
 

The title of the movie has the key word ‘Laden’, which may confuse a common man. Ali didn’t have a clear idea of the movie script, so he was quite apprehensive to enact in the film.

Ali adds, “When I received the offer I was apprehensive, as the title of the film goes Tere Bin Laden. But when I read the script I found it was a comedy. It is a satire and does not hurt anyone's ideology.”

He then adds,” idea excited me and the script was hilarious. It was fun to do this film.”

Ali Zafar is a Pakistani Pop singer and he has delivered hit numbers like ‘Sajania’ and ‘Masty’.
The movie ‘Tere Bin Laden’ is directed by Abhishek Sharma and he plays a journalist in the movie.
 

Zafar adds, “I play a journalist from Pakistan, who is desperate to migrate to the US. He fails to get there because of visa problems post 9/11. So he decides to produce a fake video of Osama Bin Laden to attract attention, but lands in trouble.”

The 30-year old performer likes Akshay Kumar and Govinda in the Bollywood film industry.

He adds, “I like the work of Akshay Kumar and Govinda, their comic timing is superb. With regards to films, I love the 'Munnabhai series’; My Name is Khan and Rajneeti.”
 
Zafar is popularly known as ‘Prince Of Pop’ in Pakistan and he has also lent his voice for two songs.
He adds, “I have sung two songs in the film - I love Amrika and Ullu da pattha. Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy have given fabulous music (in the film).”
 
The movie, ‘Tere Bin Laden’ is set to release on July 16 worldwide.
