Mumbai: Ranveer Singh feels that he is "cut out" for television and after receiving numerous offers in the past, he wants to make his debut on the small screen soon.
"I would have to agree that I'm cut out for television and I really do want to make my debut on television very soon. Unfortunately, shooting of Bajirao Mastani was going on throughout the year; almost 250 days this year we were shooting. So, to take out time to host shows was not possible," said Ranveer on the sets of the show Crime Patrol where he promoted his upcoming period drama Bajirao Mastani.
"But hopefully in the coming year, it's very much on the cards and it should happen very soon," he added.
"It's been a long time that I have been pursued to host various shows. In fact, half a dozen offers have come already in the past year," the actor revealed. (Also Read: Ranveer Singh's Bajirao Line by Amitabh Bachchan in 'Epic' Dubsmash)
"Every time I would go for promotions of any film, all the producers used to say 'you're cut out for television in terms of your hosting capabilities and the kind of energy you have. You suit television very well'. I understand all too well the power and penetration of television," he added.
Ranveer's AIB Roast partner Arjun Kapoor recently ventured into television with the seventh season of Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi. Bollywood stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan and Bipasha Basu also have their television shows going on currently.
Bajirao Mastani is Ranveer's second movie this year after Dil Dhadakne Do. The movie, which also stars Deepika Padukone and Priyanka Chopra, is slated to hit screens on December 18.
