Rohit plays Kabeer Khemka in '7 Hours To Go', which is an investigative thriller based in Mumbai.
"Playing a negative character was the toughest challenge and that's the reason behind choosing this role. I am known to be this happy- go-lucky person prancing around and pulling everyone's leg, but for this character I had to try very hard to get the dark side and portray that on-screen," Rohit said in a statement.
Rohit, who is a RJ at Radio City 91.1 FM here, said that acting is a different ball game as compared to being a radio jockey.
"It was an amazing experience and I hope that the audience accepts me as an actor and gives me as much love and affection I have received as a radio jockey," he said.
'7 Hours To Go', directed by Saurabh Verma, also stars Shiv Pandit, Natasa Stankovic and Varun Badola among others. The film released on Friday.
