00:00 For me, acting is important.
00:02 Whether it's in comedy or in another genre, it doesn't matter.
00:06 Shahid has great potential as an actor.
00:09 He's still young.
00:11 He's only done a few films.
00:13 That's just the beginning.
00:15 He has a sea of acting.
00:18 My approach is more professional.
00:20 If the environment is good and the attitude is professional,
00:23 you don't even know how your day went.
00:26 [Music]
00:32 What is your role in Halla Bol?
00:36 I play a man who was a dangerous thug.
00:43 Then his heart changed.
00:45 After being released from jail,
00:47 he runs a garage and a drama troupe.
00:50 He does a comedy.
00:52 He shows the society that is going wrong
00:57 through his comedy.
00:59 He brings awareness to the society.
01:03 He tries to bring small changes.
01:06 What was the thing that made you sign for this film?
01:10 When I sign for a film,
01:12 the story is the most important.
01:14 What the film is saying is very important.
01:16 What role I'm being given is also very important.
01:20 Who is directing it?
01:22 Whoever is directing it,
01:24 they have to understand the subject.
01:28 They have to convey the subject to the audience.
01:33 I choose a film keeping all these things in mind.
01:38 In your last film, 'Mangoon', 'Pherom' and 'Blue Umbrella',
01:44 how will you rate these films?
01:48 First of all, I would like to thank you
01:50 for remembering the names of all three films.
01:52 Secondly, this is the kind of work I want to do
01:57 and have been wanting to do for a long time.
02:00 'Halla Bol' is also a film of this league.
02:04 The content of the film and the role
02:08 that Rajkumar Santoshi has given me to play,
02:11 both are different from the rest.
02:15 Through this character and the content of the film,
02:20 I'm trying to convey something to the audience.
02:23 What do you think about Shahid?
02:27 What kind of an actor is he?
02:29 Are you going to work with him in the future?
02:32 What kind of a subject do you want to work with him?
02:36 Shahid has a lot of potential as an actor.
02:39 He is very young.
02:41 He has only done a few films.
02:43 The last film that he released,
02:45 people must have realized what kind of an actor he is.
02:49 I think that's just the beginning.
02:51 He has a sea of acting in him.
02:55 Gradually, as the producers and directors
02:58 give him different kinds of roles,
03:01 his part will reach people.
03:06 As for my sons, I will obviously say that they are very good people.
03:11 They are still good people.
03:13 We have been wanting to work together for a long time.
03:17 We are working on a script.
03:20 We will work together in the future.
03:23 As soon as things are decided,
03:25 we will make an announcement about it.
03:27 The audience knows you as a great comedian
03:32 and a serious actor.
03:34 Would you like to do a comedy film?
03:37 Why not?
03:38 If I get a chance to work in a good comedy film,
03:42 or get a good subject,
03:44 or get a good role,
03:46 or if I get all these things together,
03:49 which is very rare,
03:51 I will be happy to do it.
03:53 It will be a great pleasure for me.
03:55 Which is more important for you, comedy or serious comedy?
03:59 For me, acting is important.
04:01 Whether it is comedy or any other genre,
04:04 it doesn't matter.
04:06 As long as I get a chance to act in a way I want to,
04:12 in a way I understand,
04:14 and get a subject,
04:16 and get a new role,
04:18 that is enough for me.
04:20 If I get a chance to act in any genre,
04:22 I will be happy.
04:23 Would you like to know about your co-star?
04:27 What would you like to know about my co-star?
04:32 What kind of environment was there in the film?
04:36 It was very good.
04:37 Normal, professional environment.
04:40 Almost family-like.
04:42 But I will give credit to Rajkumar Santoshi,
04:45 because the leader,
04:47 the captain of the ship,
04:49 is responsible for how he keeps people.
04:52 So, in his presence,
04:54 the whole environment was very normal.
04:57 Along with normal, it was professional.
05:00 It should be like this.
05:02 Work should be done in a warm environment,
05:05 and no one should be tensed about anything else.
05:08 That was the environment.
05:10 What kind of actors are there on set?
05:13 What kind of personal actors are there?
05:15 Personally, he is a very good person.
05:17 He is a very polite person.
05:19 He is very professional about his work.
05:22 When Rajji used to call him,
05:24 he used to be there.
05:26 Whatever he was told to do,
05:28 he used to do it.
05:30 He applies his hard work and understanding
05:33 to his acting.
05:35 You should know about Vidya.
05:37 I had very little work with her.
05:39 But I will say the same about her.
05:41 She worked with a very professional attitude.
05:46 Is there any incident about this film
05:49 that you remember about this film?
05:51 That we did a Hullaball film.
05:53 Is there any incident?
05:55 Something special?
05:56 For me, shooting was special every day.
05:59 Because it was a new set up for me.
06:01 There were new people.
06:03 My co-actors were new.
06:06 I had not worked with them before.
06:09 I had not worked with Rajji before.
06:11 So the whole environment was new for me.
06:13 So every day was new.
06:15 And as I said,
06:17 my approach to work is a bit professional.
06:20 If the environment is good,
06:22 and the attitude is professional,
06:24 you don't even realise how your day went.
06:28 We felt the same during this film.
06:30 What kind of music is used in this film?
06:34 I don't think it is appropriate to comment on music.
06:37 Because I am not an authority on music.
06:40 But I know that the music that was needed
06:44 in the film,
06:46 that kind of music was used.
06:48 Thank you.
06:50 (Music)
