Rajpal Yadav is back to work after a few tough months and only has positive vibes and good offers on his mind. The actor, who is known for some memorable roles like that of a priest in Mujhse Shaadi Karogi or Laal Hanuman in Bhool Bhulaiyaa, doesn\u2019t call his life a struggle and loves doing what he does best entertaining his audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He now has an impressive line-up of films such as Coolie No 1, Time To Dance and Bole Chudiyaan in the coming months and is also contributing his talent for the benefit of the young minds. The nuanced actor spoke to Hindustan Times about his journey in Bollywood and how he feels lucky to witness the boom of concept-driven cinema. Excerpts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I never did comedy or tragedy. I just live a situation and my mission is to entertain people. Rest the director knows where he wants to put comedy and tragedy. I don\u2019t believe in all this. There is only entertainment these days, some play lead entertainers while some play supportive entertainers. What is entertainment? The people should enjoy a performance and that\u2019s the only motto. There is no hero, no comedian, no villain. This was 20 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don\u2019t even know what\u2019s struggle. I am a workaholic man and I am used to working from morning to evening. By the grace of God, I continue to work even today. I thank the audience of this country who have showered me with love and like to watch me. I am also eager to show my work to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have few good films lined up for release in 2020. There is Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan starrer Coolie No 1 and Bole Chudiyaan with Nawazuddin Siddiqui.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is a lot of difference between the cinema of the past and what we see today. There are 50 times more facilities these days. I did Main Meri Patni Aur Woh and Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon after 2000. These films neither fall in the art category nor commercial. But the era of semi-commercial films is here. We were waiting for this time. The luckiest people are those who have seen the international postcards as well as a pager and a cellphone. There is concept-oriented cinema and we consider ourselves lucky to work in these films, no matter what is the budget. If the concept is good, it will work. Kala jitni zyada bikharti hai, utna nikharti hai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Any number of experiments performed in the field of art are never enough. This is a very good time for art. Every talented artist gets his due now. The whole world is a small village now, the talent is coming from across the world. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
