BOMBAY TIMES (May 10, 2011)

Newcomer Prashant Kumar who hails from New York and has always wanted to make it big in Bollywood is all set to realise his dream. He initially landed small parts in a Rajshri film and a horror flick, but now Prashant is being offered lead roles, primarily due to strong references. He will be seen in debutant Vivek Anand’s adventure comedy With Love From Kazakhstan. Vivek has been the writer on Studio 18’s Dil Kabaddi, chief AD on Madhur Bhandarkar’s Jail and line producer on Tanu Weds Manu. Prashant has also bagged the lead role in Dinesh Kumar’s untitled film, which is apparently inspired by the life of a current superstar. He is also playing the lead in a comedy film that pits him against two veteran stars, formal announcement to follow. “From my first performance on stage at the age of three to a decade since my first day of acting school, I have endured a colossal struggle. Eventually, people hear about you and see your work, things then begin to click overnight,” says Prashant.
