Ruslaan Mumtaz Says He Did Not Get Support From Mother on Film Debut

Actor Ruslaan Mumtaz, the son of veteran actress Anjana Mumtaz, said that he did not get his mother’s support when he stepped into the industry in 2007 with MP3: Mera Pehla Pehla Pyaar. He further said that he wanted to become an actor to just become famous.


Talking to ETimes, Ruslaan said, “She has been closely associated with this industry and she knew that it is not easy to make your space here. Many people, including me, joined the industry for the glamour part of it. I wanted to become an actor but I did not have the right reasons. I did not become an actor because I loved acting. I became an actor because I wanted to become famous. And she saw that and she did not want me to pursue this career for popularity.”

“She discouraged me and wanted me to get a regular job that wouldn’t affect my life so much,” he added, stating that the profession affects one’s personal life to a great degree.

Ruslaan also weighed in on the nepotism debate raging online since the death of actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Ruslaan said that the association value of star-kids will always be there as their parents are known by people. He said that no matter how much people crib about star-kids being launched and nepotism in Bollywood, kids of superstars will always interest them more than any other newbie getting launched.

He added that it is easy for people to sit at home and crib about nepotism in Bollywood. However, it is the same people who will go watch a star-kid’s film and make it successful, once theatres open.

Ruslaan and wife Nirali Mehta recently welcomed a baby boy in March. Ruslaan was last seen in Jabariya Jodi. He is currently a part of the TV serial Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke.
