Jaideep Ahlawat Opens Up On Getting Stereotyped

Ahlawat plays an antagonistic role in the show and has a face-off with Manoj Bajpayee in The Family Man 3. In a recent interview, Jaideep opened up on how his role in Commando led to stereotyping in the industry. In an interview with News18, Jaideep said that there was a time when he had to turn down many offers. He said, "It happened after Commando. I started getting offered a lot of weird negative characters. The character I played in that film was a little weird and off. Everybody started coming to me with roles with that kind of weirdness – ki basically aap gaadhe ho. It was very annoying! Once you do something different, every second script that comes to you starts looking exactly the same. Why should I take them up? Once a character is over, it’s done. I don’t want to play it again."Further, he added, "I would say that I now have some kind of an access to certain filmmakers and production houses [which I didn’t have earlier]. People have accepted me in some ways. That’s why my reach has increased, relatively."
