Emraan Hashmi has very consciously chosen roles that help him showcase his versatility as an actor and in the process stayed away from the tag of serial kisser that he was associated with in the beginning of his career

At the trailer launch of his recently released web series `Showtime`, host Karan Johar asked Emraan Hashmi one rumour about him that he would like to stop and the actor gave a hilarious answer. “That I`m a good kisser,” Emraan said and then immediately added, “I`m not a good kisser, I`m the best.” Of course, his answer left everyone in splits. But it is one tag that he has been associated with for the longest time right from the beginning of his career.
Emraan Hashmi, known for his early career roles often associated with the "serial kisser" tag due to his romantic scenes in films, has indeed managed to reinvent himself over the years. He made his acting debut with the crime film Footpath (2003), and achieved his breakthrough for his starring role in the erotic thriller Murder (2004). While the tag of `serial kisser` often overshadowed his skills as an actor in the public domain, in the recent years the actor has deviated from the actor by making conscious decisions when it comes to his onscreen roles.
