Don't want my kids to see me do adult-comedy: Arshad
Actor Arshad Warsi says he's clear that he'll never be a part of an adult comedy as he isn't only uncomfortable in that genre but also doesn't want his kids to see him do that. Arshad, who has featured in many hit comedies such as the Golmaal series and Total Dhamaal, says he's comfortable watching adult comedies but doesn't judge anyone who chooses it.
'I've never been and can't even foresee myself doing it'
"I don't want to do a sex comedy because I'm not comfortable doing it. I've never been and can't even foresee myself doing it," said the actor, adding, "I don't have a problem with other people doing adult comedy, I don't judge them."
I can watch it but can't do it, said Arshad
"Sometimes I can watch it too but I can't do it. Not only the fact that I'm uncomfortable doing it personally but I've also got kids. I don't want them to see me doing that," Arshad said. The actor said since his motivation of choosing a film is not money, he has no qualms of turning down projects, which make him uncomfortable.
Not the kind of person who's greedy about money: Arshad
"I'm not the kind of person who's greedy about money so it's not even in my nature that I'll do films for money. I was offered a lot of money for certain films which I wasn't comfortable being a part of and I said no," said Arshad. The actor started his acting career with Tere Mere Sapne, in 1996, a Hindi romantic drama.
Arshad found his fame with comedy film 'Munna Bhai MBBS'
Though Arshad started his career with romance, he found his groove and fame with comedy, starting with Munna Bhai MBBS in 2003. The actor says comedy as a genre is so strong that it will never be replaced by any trend. "Comedy is a genre that will never go away. You'll have phases of everything, romance, action, but not of comedy," he said.
'Who doesn't want to laugh? Comedy is a loyal friend'
Arshad said that there's never going to be a moment or time where people will stop seeing comedy. "No one will say 'we aren't going to watch comedy anymore, we will watch only drama'. It might be the other way around but never that people don't turn up for a good comedy. Who doesn't want to laugh? Comedy is a loyal friend," he said.
