actor ayub khan acted in many films like mashooq meri aan smuggler in the 90s and then made an impact with films like mrityudand and dil chahta hai but his movie career did not shape up the way he would have liked it to today when he looks back he feels he probably lacked the flamboyance which most of the actors had during the 90s he says i got many opportunities to prove myself and i feel happy that the producers banked on me in all those hindi films that i didread alsoits sad that ranju ki betiyaan has ended but i have learnt to take these things in my stride says deepshikha nagpallast month we had reported about ranju ki betiyaan wrapping up in the first week of december back then the unit wasnt aware and deepshikha nagpal who plays lalita mishra in the show too had told us that the makers hadnt intimated the cast of this development however the show is endingin fact i feel sorry that those films didnt work i dont have any other regrets because people never stopped giving me work even after my films didnt do well i had a mrityudand or dil chahta hai where my presence was felt and i made an impactayub adds during those days i did not have the guts to experiment or sing and dance like other heroes and thats what did not work for me in my career i came from the subdued school of acting i felt that your performance should be subtle and i acted in that way but audiences enjoyed actors item songs and colourful costumes and the way they acted in films i wasnt cut out for it and so i had to think of moving to television i also feel that the flavour was different at that point of time and i could not gauge the pulse of the audiencescoming from a filmi background ayub is late dilip kumars nephew and son of nasir khan and begum para he says today often youngsters talk about being in an industry where if you dont have a godfather you will not succeed but i want to say that even though i belonged to a filmi family dilip saab never backed me or supported me he used to say no one ever backed me or supported me so you should also rise to your level with your own hard work i am glad that whatever work i did i would like to take credit because i never had anyone supporting me my mother pushed me into films though initially i didnt want to be an actor but the entire journey and hard work is mine and i am happy about itthe actor was last seen in the tv show ranju ki betiyaan and is currently seen in spy bahu playing a businessman he says i have done positive and negative roles and now i would love to do comedy though it is a woman
