In a recent exclusive conversation with India.com Boman talked about his upcoming film and also addressed the pressure of being a late boomer in Bollywood. When we asked him whether starting his career at 44 ever made him feel the pressure of entering the industry in his 40s — given the fact that Bollywood is an industry where youth is often equated with success the actor replied My age has been my advantage. People have always given a plus point for being and reinventing myself as an actor writer and a director as the years have gone by. So why should age have anything to do with my skills? My mind is youthful and I’m happy about it!   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Boman Irani (@boman_irani) Coming back to Detective Sherdil Boman shared insights about his role and screen time.
