Almost every regional cinema industry is flourishing in India, says Manav Gohil!2014

Actor Manav Gohil is quite content over discovering a secured place himself in the showbiz. Other than TV, he is even glad over his debut in a Gujarati movie titled Saptapadii.

It is notable that Manav has acted in many TV shows and is currently playing a mentor in Channel V’s The Buddy Project. He has always believed in variation and has been known for his multitasking. Along with films and TV, he is even playing a perfect father to his toddler. 

Speaking of his multitasking and the niche he has carved, he said, "Whatever space I have created for myself, life's good in that space. I got to spend time with Zahra during my recent trip to Australia and I also offer to baby sit Zahra and ask Shweta Kawatra to go out and have fun”.

Proud to be a Gujarati, he thinks that it's about time Gujarati cinema braces itself to make an impact on the viewers. The actor, who played the lead opposite Swaroop Sampat in his first Gujarati film, says, "Almost every regional cinema industry is flourishing in India. Sometimes, I ask, 'what's wrong with Gujarati film industry?' It has talented technicians, scriptwriters and best of the literature, yet Gujarati cinema is not flourishing. So when I got to do a Gujarati film, I said to myself, 'if I can be a part of this progressive movement, why shouldn't I grab the chance?' Gujaratis should be proud of watching a Gujarati movie in a theatre. I could never relate to the regressive rural cinema of Gollywood because I had the option of watching Bollywood films."

Speaking over Swaroop, wife of Bollywood actor Paresh Rawal, Manav said, "I was in awe of Swaroop initially. But she would make me feel really comfortable."
