Liabilities of director of pvt ltd co

One of my friend runs a small outsourcing firm from couple of years.  Lately he is offering me the director role and wanted to transfer 60-70% of the share on my name.  Also, as director he wanted me to create the DIN no. and asking me to sign the Bank documents to authorize him for all kinds of bank transactions. 

Without knowing the company much, I would like to know if it is safe to get the shares transferred under my name and also authroize him for the Bank transactions.  Kindly advise.

If you want to become a share holder of the company, it is your duty to know each and every thing about the company and also to know the present and past situations. You should also satisfy your self ,  that your becoming partner, must have good faith.
