Arshad Warsi began his career in films as a choreographer before becoming an actor known for his impeccable comic timing. Over the years, he has entertained audiences with films such as Golmaal, Munna Bhai MBBS, Dhamaal, and several others. Recently, he reflected on his experience with the film Hulchul, which he considers an exception in his otherwise fulfilling career. In the film, he played the best friend to Akshaye Khanna’s lead character.

Arshad Warsi says he was promised Akshay Kumar-like role

In an interview with The Lallantop, Arshad said he generally does not complain about his work but had a particularly bad experience with Hulchul. He recalled, “Hulchul was a problem. Neeraj Vohra saab approached me when I was busy doing films and said, ‘Arshad, there’s a film and Priyadarshan is the director.’ I said, ‘Wow, done. What am I doing in it?’ He asked me if I had seen Hera Pheri and said it was the same role Akshay Kumar played. I was like, ‘Done, it’s a damn good role.’”
