Arshad Warsi hit the big time with his Circuit act in Munnabhai. From a dancer to an actor and in between a playback singer and television anchor, Warsi’s journey has been anything but a smooth ride.
Basics on Arshad
Arshad Warsi was born on 19th April 1968 in Mumbai. With a strong interest in dance, Warsi joined a dance group and when he was twenty-one years old he participated in the English Jazz Dancing Competition and he was placed fourth. He set up a dance school with the money he made from the win. Dancing aside, he was also a part of the English Theater Group.
Wedding bells rang in 1999 when Warsi and video jockey Maria Goretti said ‘I Do’. They had a son Zeke in 2004 and a daughter Zene Zoe in 2007.
Arshad Warsi on Television
Warsi anchored several shows like Sabse Favourite Kaun on Star Gold; Filmy Stock Exchange on the Filmy Channel; Razzmatazz, a dance show on Zee TV and Big Boss, the indie version of Big Brother.
Arshad Warsi’s Movies
1996 to 2002 Arshad Warsi got his chance as a movie actor in ABCL’s first production Tere Mere Sapne (1996) which failed at the box office. The movies that followed were below average performers at the box office like Betaabi (1997), Mujhe Mere Biwi Se Bachao (2001) and Jaani Dushman (2002).
2003 to 2008 Though Shashanka Ghosh’s Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part Two (2003) was a flop his performance was appreciated. His wife Maria Goretti had a cameo role in the movie. He landed the Circuit role in Rajkumar Hirani’s Munnabhai MBBS (2003). The movie hit the top of charts and his comic act won him the Zee Cine Award for Best Actor in a Comic Role.
He worked in hits like Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya (2005), Salaam Namaste (2005) and Golmaal (2006). The sequel Lage Raho Munnabhai (2006) won him the Filmfare Best Comedian Award. Kabul Express (2006) with John Abraham was an average hit and they worked together in a sports based movie Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal(2007). The sequel Golmaal Returns (2008) was a big earner.
His next release is Zamaanat with Amitabh Bacchan and Karishma Kapoor and a third installment of Munnabhai is in the pipeline.
