Welcome 3 is one of the most awaited films in Bollywood. The third installment of the hit comedy franchise, Welcome, promises to be a laugh riot with a star-studded cast. The film will feature Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Paresh Rawal, and the latest addition, Arshad Warsi.
Arshad Warsi, known for his comic timing and hilarious roles in films like Munna Bhai MBBS, Golmaal, and Dhamaal, has confirmed that he will be part of Welcome 3. He said that the film is going to be a larger-than-life theatrical film with an unreal scale and cost.
“The scale of Welcome 3: the cost, the climax, is unreal. It is an insanely larger-than-life theatrical film which I will be a part of. It has me, Akshay Kumar, Sanju (Sanjay Dutt), Paresh Rawal and lots of other people”, he told Hindustan Times.
He also revealed that he is excited to work with Akshay Kumar and Sanjay Dutt, who are his good friends and co-stars from other films. He said that he shares a great rapport with them and that they have a lot of fun on the sets.
“I have worked with Akshay in Jolly LLB 2 and Sanju in Munna Bhai MBBS. They are both very good friends of mine. We have a great chemistry and we enjoy working together. We have a blast on the sets”, he said.
Arshad Warsi also opened up about why he seen less on the big screen nowadays. He said that the scenario of Indian cinema has changed and that most of the films releasing in theatres are superhero films, which he finds bizarre. He said that he prefers job satisfaction over money and that he does not fancy doing small bits in big films.
“The whole scenario has changed in cinema. Now, all the movies released in theatres are superhero films. They are huge, larger than life, it’s bizarre.”
“I am seeing myself that way. To do a small bit in these big films, I don’t fancy that. For me, job satisfaction is most important. These are films which will pay me tonnes of money. The ones I have got offered, I didn’t fancy very much. The one I am doing is Welcome 3.”
