Riteish Deshmukh talked about choosing to do sex comedies without worrying about what his kids may think about his movies in the future. The actor has two sons with his significant other, actress Genelia D’Souza. In a recent interaction, Riteish said he was the only actor, ‘who has done 4-5 sex comedies’.
In a new interaction with ETimes Riteish said, “I am the only actor who’s done 4-5 sex comedies and I am not ashamed of that. After a point, there’s nothing more that can be on offer. I never thought what would my son think in the future. When I did that, my father was the chief minister of Maharashtra. I made that choice. My parents never told me what to do, what not to do. They allowed me to make my own choice. When it comes to my kids making a choice for to watch, they don’t really know about my body of work.”
Talking about his kids – Rahyl and Riaan – the actor said they don’t know that he is a famous person, and are told by their school friends that their ‘father is a star’. “My kids still don’t understand, why paps (paparazzi) and fans want to click pictures with me. They are still not aware of the stardom. Fame is only temporary. What you think is fame, might just be an illusion… My kids go to school and their friends tell them your father is a star. All I tell my children is, ‘Go and tell your friends that my father goes to work every day to provide for me and to entertain my family’,” Riteish said.
