Maverick filmmaker, actor Kamal Rashid Khan knows how to remain politically correct even as he glibly talks like a seasoned politician. The man, recently evicted from hit reality show Bigg Boss 3, has learned to handle fame that came his way after his film Deshdrohi made him the talk of town.
Though he is yet to hit the big league in Bollywood, KRK made no bones about the need for 'being practical' to remain in business. A native of Deoband in Uttar Pradesh, Khan chose his words appropriately yet fluently to express his views about the need for minding one's own business until you have the conviction to carry on, in apparent references to some actors turning activists and then doing a volte face.
In a freewheeling chat with MiD DAY, Khan talked about blink and miss romance with Claudia Ciesla, his housemate in Bigg Boss' house, Raj Thackeray's tirade against north Indians in Maharashtra and why he would never apologise to the MNS leader the way Karan Johar did for Wake up Sid.

In business: Actor, filmmaker Kamal Rashid Khan says acting and activism cannot go together. |
Excerpts:
Tell us about your experiences at Bigg Boss' house?
I predicted my eviction the day I reached there. I packed only for 21 days and knew I will be evicted. I have a big business to take care of. I could not have stayed for three months there.
In season two it was Rahul Mahajan and Payal Rohatgi and in season three it was you and Claudia.
We were not a couple like Rahul and Payal. I liked Claudia. She was nice girl and used to have fun with her. I told her that I loved her and when she asked me what I can do for her, I stayed hungry for hours. Later, she only offered food to me.
