Arshad Warsi says he cannot say he is a part of the industry
Arshad Warsi debuted in the Hindi film industry about 27 years ago. He starred in Tere Mere Sapne which came out in 1996. Arshad is still waiting to build his credibility as an actor. He says it is tough for actors like him since he does not belong to the industry. “Sadly, I’ve been here for almost 27 years, and I still can’t say that I’m part of the industry,” Arshad tells an online entertainment news portal. He elaborates his statement with reason, saying that it takes him a long to climb back to the position he was in after delivering a flop.
Furthermore, Arshad says that one has to be strong enough to say no. He claimed that he has been offered a lot of cop roles since Asur. But he has turned down many. Arshad adds that there are some which he finds fabulous and that he is doing some of them. Arshad Warsi has been grabbing headlines in the entertainment news for his acting chops in some amazing projects these days.
Arshad Warsi talks about getting recognition after the OTT boom
Arshad Warsi says that the OTT expansion and flourish have given actors like him a platform which is performance oriented. Unlike the commercial film industry where hero-heroine plotlines are at the core. Arshad believes because of these platforms actors like him are exploring and flourishing. OTT does not have the need to be a quintessential hero and hence, has a space for everyone. “Guys like me, who don’t look like hero types, are finally getting recognised,” he tells Hindustan Times.
Arshad Warsi has played some iconic characters such as Madhav in Golmaal, Circuit in Munna Bhai MBBS, Adi in Dhamaal, Jagdish Tyagi in Jolly LLB and now Dhananjay Rajpoot aka DJ in Asur.
