After making a promising start in Bollywood, Saqib Saleem, the "Mere Dad Ki Maruti" actor says he has decided to stick to good content rather than opting to do back-to-back films. The 28-year-old Delhi boy says he will not do a project just for the sake of being noticed. He says," "I can't do too many films. I take time with my films and I want to work on every script properly before I move on to something else."

The actor, who also made a striking appearance in 'Bombay Talkies,' says he was also absent from the silver screen because some of his projects got shelved. "I was doing a couple of films which got shelved before a week the shooting was supposed to start. I guess that also put me at the backfoot. I was driving things in life on fourth gear, but now I am on third gear." "I need to accelerate things. But I will still not sign everything that comes to me. I will stick to doing right films and not lie to myself or the audience."

Saqib's next project is a happy and fun love story which also stars 'Pink' actress Taapsee Pannu. The cast and crew are in Delhi for the shooting. "I am very excited as I have never shot in Delhi before. This is my home, I have grown up here and there is nothing more special than shooting in your hometown. And more than me, my friends and family are exited. They want to visit the sets. I am looking forward to the schedule."

Saqib, who at the moment is on low calorie high protein food diet, is planning to indulge in some delicious home-cooked food. "I have not eaten a good unhealthy meal for a long time as I have to keep fit for my role in the film. I am missing a lot of Mughlai dishes. And I wish to hog on to some delicious food my mom cooks. "I miss Delhi food a lot.

"Delhi - Mumbai debate will always be there. Though I am Dilliwala by heart, I know I can't live anywhere else other than Mumbai. The vibe of the city is amazing. My heart is in Delhi and my life is in Mumbai."

Even though he is only a few movies old, his performances have always been memorable and appreciated critically as well as by the audiences. Looking forward to see him more often
