The father in me is more predominant now: Rahul Bose

Rahul Bose is a 'chained' person. Bonding with his 13-year-old co-star Zain Khan in Ken Ghosh's children's film "Chain Kulii Ki Main Kulii has made him conscious of the biological clock ticking way.

"I don't know... I certainly don't want to get married. But the father in me is certainly more predominant now than it used to be when I was younger. I invest a lot of my paternal feelings into my sister's daughter," Rahul told IANS.

In fact, Rahul lives in south Mumbai with his sister and niece. The three went on a long European holiday recently.

"I'd say my bonding with Zain during 'Chain Kulii...' was pretty revealing. Zain is a sports person like me. We'd spend hours on the field perfecting the game, or just chatting up about life. We went to Delhi and other places promoting the film. Zain certainly took me back to my own childhood. I've seldom had so much fun with a co-star."

And to think Rahul was initially hesitant about doing "Chain Kulii Ki Main Kulii".

"Apart from a 'Makdee', all the children's films in our country tend to talk down to kids. When I read Ken Ghosh's script, I simply fell in love with its simplicity. It has magic, drama, innocence and a message. It says the magic is within all of us. All we need to do is tap it. I firmly believe in that."
