Mumbai, Sep 13 (NationPress) – Fashion critic Sufi Motiwala, who is also a prominent influencer, is preparing to embark on an acting career. Sufi is all set to make his debut in the series 'Do You Want a Partner?', featuring Tamannah Bhatia and Diana Penty.

Recently, during an interview with IANS, Sufi was asked which actor's life he would choose to experience if given the opportunity. Without hesitation, he responded, "Alia Bhatt". Expanding on his choice, Sufi Motiwala expressed, “I would love to be Alia Bhatt for one day. She has the most iconic life. Just think about it—having Ranbir Kapoor as your husband, a gorgeous daughter named Raha, a lavish mansion, and an incredibly successful career in Hindi cinema. Honestly, I'd love to be Alia even for just one hour!” His playful comment highlights the admiration and inspiration Alia’s career trajectory has instilled across the industry. Since her debut in “Student of the Year”, followed by hits like “Highway”, “Dear Zindagi”, “Gully Boy”, “Raazi”, “Gangubai Kathiawadi”, and her most recent work “Jigra”, Alia's journey is nothing short of motivating.

As for Sufi Motiwala, he began as a fashion voice on social media and has gained recognition for his candid and quirky fashion critiques. His upcoming series, “Do You Wanna Partner?”, produced by Dharmatic Entertainment, showcases a star-studded cast, including Tamannah Bhatia, Diana Penty, Nakuul Mehta, and Jaaved Jaffery. Set against the backdrop of female entrepreneurship, the show blends comedy and drama while discussing the highs and lows of ambition. Sufi's role in this ensemble marks his official entry into scripted entertainment after years of fostering genuine, candid conversations in the digital fashion realm.

Reflecting on his first experience in front of the camera, Sufi shared the challenges he encountered. He mentioned it was quite difficult to remain natural on screen, ensuring that his performance didn’t come across as merely acting. He added that while it was initially challenging, he gradually adapted and aimed to present his scenes as authentically as possible.

For those unfamiliar, before delving into acting, Sufi Motiwala had already made a name for himself as a fashion critic unafraid to critique trends and spotlight style moments in Bollywood. From reviewing Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to Janvi Kapoor, Sufi has consistently offered straightforward and fearless opinions. He also participated in the OTT reality show “The Traitors”, where he received widespread acclaim for his authenticity and realness on the program.
