Why Naveen Andrews????


Why in every (British) movie any Asian character has to be played by Naveen Andrews??? it's ming boggling... Can't they find any other actor who ca play Asian character

He has decent name recognition worldwide and particularly in the US due to tv series 'Lost' therefore he could easily balance the fame of leading lady Naomi Watts. Plus he did look like Hasnat Khan with the eyes,cubbiness, hair, facial expressions, etc. And he's a competent actor. I can't think of a better choice!
