DUBAI: A former cricketer cum actor Adel Farooq is eyeing to become the first Emirati to become the part of Bollywood.
Farooq recently acted in a Hindi television drama and has also produced several music albums in the language.
Named as one of the most unique entertainers in the UAE, Adel Farooq can also sing in Punjabi and English.
The multi-talented actor confesses his love for Bollywood films and Hindi songs, “Since childhood I have always been fascinated by the variety of films that come out of Bollywood. I am a passionate singer and actor and I am looking forward to the first break in Indian movies. When the opportunity for ‘Parwaaz’ knocked on my door I immediately gave it a go and I’m so glad I did. In the future I envision myself as part of the vibrant Bollywood scene, doing all these films and of course, singing.”
He released his first solo album in 2010, ‘Dastaan’, a collection of catchy Hindi songs, among other chart-topping singles and music covers.
Adel Farooq was also the Vice-captain of UAE cricket team few years ago.
