The actor, who was last seen in the web show Asur, is collaborating with Akshay Kumar after a gap of 20 years. The duo worked together in Jaani Dushman (2002). The actor, however, would want to count Bachchhan Paanday as his first project with Kumar. “It was a different cinema, it is another story. I would want to think that I have not worked with him before and this is my first time,” he says about the film about ‘ichhadhari nagas and naagins’.  Arshad also worked in Akshay’s production, Durgamati (2020).

About working with Akshay, Arshad said, “I really like him. I knew of him as a person and actor. I had heard so much about him, but it was always from other people. When you meet him in person and interact with him, that’s when you know that he is really that person. He is really a nice chap, a good person with a pure heart, that’s very important. Maybe, that is one of the reasons that guys like him just go on and on doing good work, they don’t fade out. Everybody wants to cast him, as he is so good to work with, a thorough professional and a good human being.”

Arshad then emphasized on how important it is for him to know who is the lead actor of the film. “I did Munna Bhai because it was Sanju (Sanjay Dutt), otherwise even Raju (filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani) knows that it is a stupid role. It really is on paper, it was nothing. Even Makrand Deshpande had said no to Circuit!”

So what are the factors that he keeps in mind when he is offered a script? He says, “I listen to any script purely as an audience member. Would I want to see what I am doing? It can be any genre, it could be anything, but it should be something the audience would like to watch. After listening to the story, it is your gut feeling that tells you if you want to do that film or not.”
