Arshad Warsi Instagram – “I didn’t want to become an actor; I’d never acted before I did my first movie. I was frightened–what if I failed? I’d be pitied– “Bechara gaon se actor banne aya tha!” But a director and a meeting with Mrs. Jaya Bachchan changed everything. They put me in front of the camera and changed the trajectory of my life. All of a sudden, I was in the limelight.
But after the craze died down, so did the limelight. I wasn’t getting as many movies. For 3-4 years before Munna bhai happened, I was out of work. During that phase, Jeetendra’s words helped me stay strong–I didn’t compromise. Even when Rajkumar offered me to play a goon, I was apprehensive. But I said yes. And thank god that I did, because that’s how I became ‘Circuit’!”
