Mumbai, Feb 27 (IANS) Actor Sikandar says he feels humbled with the appreciation that has come his way for his work in “Tere Bin Laden: Dead Or Alive”, particularly from family audiences and children.

“I’m very happy that people are laughing. We were sitting inside the theatres and families and children were enjoying it a lot… Children should come and watch the film because it is a fun-filled film,” said Sikandar, who was present with his co-star from the film, Manish Paul at a theatre here.

“It’s quite exciting, and seeing their reactions is delightful. I feel humbled and I feel amazing… it’s a nice thing to hear appreciation,” he added.

Sikandar is seen in two different looks in the film, which traces the life of a struggling filmmaker (played by Manish), who uses Pradhuman Singh’s character of an Osama Bin Laden lookalike to his benefit. This impersonation leads to hilarious situations in the film.

“Tere Bin Laden: Dead Or Alive” has been directed by Abhishek Sharma, who had previously directed the first part of the franchise, “Tere Bin Laden”.
