While Arshad Warsi has given us many interesting characters to rejoice on, his performance as Circuit in Munnabhai MBBS has been the most notorious one. In fact, Circuit’s character became a cult, the biggest example of friendship goals. And now as the film completes 20 years, Arshad only feels gratitude to have gotten the chance to play the role. He even reminisces how this role gave him a friendship of a lifetime with Sanjay Dutt. Not just that, the immense popularity of the character was a real game-changer for Arshad.
On this occassion Arshad took to Instagram and wrote, “20 years, wow, seems like yesterday… I thank you all for loving Munna & Circuit so much.” He even shared a lovely throwback picture of him and Sanjay Dutt from the film.
Arshad further says, “I cannot believe it has been 2 decades. Circuit is a very special character for me, it is very close to my heart.” He even shared an incident saying, “After many years we went back on the sets of a project and it was shocking, the whole unit could not believe it, they wanted to take pictures with us because we were in our costumes as Munna and Circuit. It was flattering to see the new young generation and the old ones identify with us and take pictures. Guess, that’s the magic this movie has created.”
Well, Arshad has been an actor par excellence, he has delivered some of the best characters in Bollywood. While his role in Asur was also quite appreciated, fans have been eagerly waiting to see Munnabhai and Circuit back on screen.
Until that happens, Arshad will be sharing screen space with Sanjay Dutt in Welcome To The Jungle once again. Currently, he is seen as a judge on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Season 11.
