  • Raftaar 'would love to act in South Indian film'
Rapper Raftaar, who has created waves with songs like "Dhup Chik" and "Instagram Love", says if he ever gets an opportunity to act, he would like to star in a South Indian film.
 
"To be very honest, if I ever try acting, I would act in a South Indian film. That is where I am from and that is what I naturally feel," Raftaar, whose real name is Dilin Nair, told IANS over phone. 
 
The 28-year-old musician, who has his roots in Kerala, feels he will "do good in a Malayalam movie". 
 
"If something comes my way, I will definitely do it because I love representing where I am from. But I have not given anything back to Kerela yet," added the "Tamanche Pe Disco" crooner, who is known for Punjabi rap. 
 
On the work front, Raftaar has crooned a number for the upcoming actioner "Dishoom" titled "Toh dishoom". The film features actors Varun Dhawan, John Abraham and Jacqueline Fernandez.
