Did you know?: Ali Zafar is looking to add ‘writer’ to his impressive resume

Actor-singer-songwriter-music director-painter Ali Zafar is now tapping into a new territory — scriptwriting!

The all-rounder, who has earned his spurs on both sides of the border, stated at a media interaction for his upcoming film Total Siyapaa that he has “now started writing for a film,” according to the Indian Express.

He added that the script will “be for [his] own production [house that he is thinking about launching].” The dazzling star affirmed that he will also be acting in the film he’s writing. “I like to keep challenging myself with something I have never done before,” said Ali.

Ali’s film Total Siyapaa is slated to release on March 7. He is also thrilled about shooting for Shaad Ali’s action film Kill Dil, for which he will be toughening up for the first time in his film career. He hopes that this role will break his romcom-leading man image.

He has grown a French goatee and moustache for the film, which also stars Bollywood stars Govinda, Ranveer Singh and Parineeti Chopra.

We hope that your upcoming ventures set the box office ablaze, Ali!
