In the same year, he appeared in the romcom Out of Control. In the coming few years, he appeared in many more comedy films, including Masti, Home Delivery, Mr Ya Miss, and Bluffmaster!. His 2005 sex-comedy Kya Kool Hain Hum helped him earn a strong foothold with comic roles in the industry. Malamaal Weekly and Apna Sapna Money Money helped him strengthen himself as a comic actor. For the next 7-8 years he continued doing comedy roles. He also reprised his roles in franchises like Housefull and Dhamaal which proved to be blockbusters at the box office. However, his 2014 release where he essayed triple roles, Humshakals, failed at the box office.
