As an NRI artist, Omi Vaidya would have never thought that his usual vacation to India and a random tour to ongoing auditions in Mumbai would earn him lasting glory and fame in Bollywood. Popularly known as 'Chatur'; his character from '3 Idiots', Omi now has become a household name for his portrayal of an obnoxious geek in the film.
But now he is looking beyond that, and with an interesting character in his upcoming flick 'Jodi Breakers', he is hoping to register another unforgettable character in the heart of the audience.
He exclaims, "While, I admit that the success of 'Chatur' is hardly repeatable, I surely hope to deliver more of such unforgettable performances. And the character in my upcoming film, which is fondly called 'Nano', can very well be the same. I am playing a flirt, with varied shades and also have page-long speeches like
Chatur had. I have had a lot of fun and satisfaction doing 'Jodi Breakers', and so I am eagerly looking forward to audiences' response to the film."
Prod him about his dream role and he comes up with a surprise as it's not another comic character like 'Chatur', but he is hoping a role in which he has to transform himself.
"Something, for which I have to go through a complete physical transform," he shares, "And no one can think of me as Omi. I will be glad if such role comes up which challenges my skills as an actor to the utmost level."
