‘As of now, there is no market for me’

Sikander Kher, son of veteran actress Kirron Kher who is three films old and is yet to crack the success formula in Bollywood, says he is struggling to make a name for himself in the industry and that there is no market for him as yet.

So far, Sikander’s ride in B-town has not been smooth. All his films — ‘Summer 2007’, ‘Woodstock Villa’ and Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey — failed to garner attention at the box office.  Despite back-to-back failures, Sikander dreams to be a successful actor in the tinsel town. 

“Not many people know me today, because my films did not do well. May be when I deliver a hit film, they will know me. First, let the audience know me, let me get recognised, let them know what work I am doing or will be doing. It will happen slowly and gradually. As of now, there is no market for Sikander Kher,” said Sikander.

“But it is feasible and I am here to give my best. The important thing is you want the audience to love you. So you are always in search of a good character, a good film,” he says.

Sikander began his acting career in 2008 with Sanjay Gupta and Ekta Kapoor’s ‘Woodstock Villa’, a musical-thriller, featuring him along with Neha Oberoi and Arbaaz Khan.

The film fared badly at the box office. Another release in the same year was ‘Summer 2007’, directed by the debutant Suhail Tatari.

The film revolved around five medical students, who experience a rude awakening after visiting a Maharashtrian village and witnessing the misfortune of villagers. The film, which starred Sikander, Gul Panag, Yuvika Chaudhary and Arjan Bajwa, also failed at the box office.
