Arshad Warsi, a versatile actor known for his comic roles, has been making a mark in serious roles as well. In an exclusive interview with Indian Express, he expressed his happiness about breaking the image of a "comic actor" and being accepted in diverse roles.
Arshad recalled his experience in the critically-acclaimed film Seher, where he portrayed a serious cop, which was a departure from his comedy image. Despite his initial apprehensions, he was accepted in the role. He humorously mentioned winning a comic actor award for Jolly LLB, which was a serious role for him, and expressed his hope not to receive a similar award for his serious role in Asur.
