Mumbai, Jan 22 (TIWN) Actor Tahir Raj Bhasin, who is gearing up for the release of 'Looop Lapeta', is happy with the positive response to his work as a romantic hero in two of his recent releases, 'Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhein' and 'Ranjish Hi Sahi'.

The actor, who made his foray into Bollywood with his portrayal of an antagonist in 'Mardaani', now feels confident having received praises to his work both as a villain and a romantic hero.  Talking about the appreciation, Tahir said, "When I started out in the industry as an anti-hero I got overwhelming love from critics and audiences and now as I put myself out there to be judged as a romantic hero, I'm thrilled that the acceptance is even higher than what it was for 'Mardaani'."
