It is the success of 'Hera Pheri' that made me do more comedy films like 'Hungama,' 'Malamaal Weekly' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa.'
Finally, after a long wait of 11 years, Murad Bhai came to me with a script, which I felt was worthy of taking 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa' forward as a franchise. I am thrilled to announce 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2' in association with Murad Bhai, together with whom we delivered the box-office hit 'Kabir Singh.'
We knew no matter how well 'Phir Hera Pheri' does, it would always be compared to 'Hera Pheri.' Yet, we took it as a challenge.
I have enjoyed doing some films as they were well written like 'Andaz Apna Apna,' 'Hera Pheri' and 'Cheeni Kum.' These films were high on the comedy quotient as the characters were creating a comic situation.
When I made 'Hera Pheri,' there was a huge poverty in Hindi cinema for comedies.
A good role is one that moves along with the story, like 'Baazigar' and 'Kareeb' for example. Similarly, I agreed to '36 China Town' and 'Phir Hera Pheri' because my characters in both films have a graph and are significant in moving the story ahead.
I did not watch many of my father's films because he used to do action movies. So when anyone punched my dad I used to get scared. I have loved him in comedies. I loved him in 'Hera Pheri.'
'Hera Pheri' is inspired by 'Laurel and Hardy,' Charlie Chaplin. It is about humor of poverty.
My all-time favourite movies are 'Andaz Apna Apna' and 'Hera Pheri.'
I am not involved with 'Hera Pheri 3.' I have told the makers that I am not interested.
We have little bits of comedy throughout our films but this is like a full-on comedy. I had great time. It was fun to do a comedy and see a lot of the people I worked with on our previous films and meet some new actors. It was a good experience for me.
There's been almost a dozen films that have been made against me. There's actually more films made attacking me than films I've made.
I think comedy is a bit more international than people credit. I happily watch lots of American shows and American comedy films. If I did a list of the top 10 comedy films in Britain, there's no sense that it would probably be different than yours.
I felt shaky, then 'Hungama' worked, and I signed films left, right and centre to kill my insecurity.
I have done many comedy films. Success of films like 'Partner,' 'Singh is Kinng' gets you to a very wide audience reach. But for greater gains, you need to take greater gambles. If it works, you get respect and recognition.
Hera: Ohh, Thalia Grace, when I get out of here, you'll be sorry you were ever born. Thalia: Save it! You've been nothing but a curse to every child of Zeus for ages. You sent a bunch of intestinally challenged cows after my friend Annabeth Hera: She was disrespectful! Thalia: You dropped a statue on my legs. Hera: It was an accident! Thalia: AND you took my brother
But if you stagnate, the growth is over. I have done many comedy films. Success of films like Partner, Singh is Kinng gets you to a very wide audience reach. But for greater gains, you need to take greater gambles. If it works, you get respect and recognition.
