Emraan Hashmi on why he does not think he is fit to be a producer
Even though Emraan Hashmi produced one film, he was more of a silent producer as he also acted in it. During an interview with IANS, the actor said that he is more of a creative person.
He shared, "I don't think I am fit to be a producer. I did produce one film, but I was more of a silent producer and was playing the actor in it, so my producer self took a backseat. I am more of a creative person than a business-minded person."
Emraan further said that he got a Commerce degree but shared a running joke in his family. He said, "There's a running joke in my family that I wanted to be in arts, but I went into Commerce and I still don't cross my checks properly when I sign them. There's someone always lurking over my head to see if I do everything correctly." 
Additionally, the Showtime actor said that he is not a numbers person and also not a Commerce person. Calling himself more creatively inclined, Emraan said that if he does produce another film, "it will always be to delegate the work to people who know that part of it better, the finance better."
