Often got lauded for films post their TV premieres: Purab

Mumbai Dec 7 (IANS) Actor Purab Kohli says he was often lauded for his films after they premiered on TV.

Purab feels people sometimes refuse to go to the theatres to watch a movie after reading the reviews.

"What happens is that a lot of people decide not to go to a theatre sometimes because they have heard a review. Very often in some of the films I have done the reviews have not been so great or the audience has not had the chance to see it in the theatre because it runs out fast " Purab said in a statement.

"But when it (the film) comes on TV is when I start getting messages about how good the film is or how they enjoyed watching it " he added.

Purab was last seen onscreen in "Noor" which will have its TV premiere on Sony MAX on Friday.

" Noor is a great film especially for an urban audience. It will be quite interesting to watch. It s a good character to make the story on and it s got good twists and turns " Purab said.

Featuing Sonakshi Sinha in the title role "Noor" which released earlier this year is based on Pakistani novel "Karachi You re Killing Me!"
