Our fave boutique Bollywood actor is back from hibernation – and how! He’s bagged himself a part in this highly acclaimed American TV series called The Americans 😀 Not bad, aye?

And, this is what he has to say:

“The Americans is one of my favourite new TV shows and I was overjoyed to get an opportunity to be a part of its second season. It was a pleasure working with such an incredible & accomplished team. Who knew espionage was such fun?”

A period drama created and produced by former CIA officer Joe Weisberg, The Americans revolves around the complex marriage of two Soviet KGB spies posing as Americans in suburban Washington DC shortly after Ronald Reagan is elected president. The series, which sometimes incorporates real-life events into the narrative, is bit of a slow burn but is highly recommended (okay, it’s yet to reach Mad Men levels of greatness).

Regardless, now that you know that our hombre will be featured in one of the episodes, isn’t it reason enough for you to burn through all of season 1 – before the season 2 premiere on February 26? He’ll be in episode 10, playing the role of  “Yousaf”, an Oxford educated, Pakistani intelligence officer with access to key information of interest to the KGB.

And, and, and, if you always dreamt of seeing him in the buff, your wishes just might come true, if this is anything to go by… 😉
