Television host-turned-actor Shiv Pandit, who will be seen in the upcoming web show Selection Day, hopes that he has built certain credibility as an actor. "I think people don't have an epileptic reaction when they hear my name as an actor. I hope I have built certain credibility as an actor and I think filmmakers are more interested in making good stories rather than focusing on stars, these days.

"So, I have a feature film in the pipeline which will come out next year. A greater part of this year, I was busy shooting for 'Selection Day'," Shiv told IANS in an interview. He made his debut in Bollywood with the film Shaitan in 2011. His Tamil language film "Leelai" was also received well by the critics and audience alike. In fact, for Shaitan, he was even nominated for the Filmfare Award for best male debut.
