Dino Morea: “In my earlier phase filmmakers weren’t seeing me in a different light”

Back in the buzz for portraying fascinating roles with regards to web shows, Dino Morea was quite a name during the 2000s. The actor is known to be a part of movies like Pyaar Mein Kabhi (1999), Raaz (2002), Tom, Dick, and Harry (2006) among others. One of the attractive actors of Bollywood, Dino was likewise known for being great stylish and his great body. Notwithstanding, steadily he started fading from Bollywood just to make an excellent comeback in the past few years with interesting roles in the digital space.

Speaking about his earlier exit, Dino says, “There came a time then where I was just being offered movies and stories that had nothing more to it. I knew if I did those I would be called a flop actor of flop films. I didn’t want to feed the audience rubbish content. Directors were reaching out to me with small characters in films, I mean I would have done it if the roles were great, but that wasn’t the case.”

The actor who won gigantic applauds and fame for his last web show, The Empire, says that he committed awful errors in the old phase of his career.  “I compare an actor’s career to stock market. If your stocks are not doing too well then people are not going to invest money in you. Also, in order to get your stocks rising up, you need to do good work. So, at that time there were no filmmakers who thought we should sign Dino for interesting roles. They were not seeing me in a different light and so my stocks went down. The offers became far and few in between. Today when filmmakers see me in this avatar, in my web shows, they are surprised and wonder how come they didn’t see me in that light before. If only they could have then I would have stayed longer in my earlier stint.”
