Jackie Shroff, who has always been the quintessential badass in his films, has said that he’s been taking up more comic roles recently as he feels like he hasn’t fully explored that side of himself yet. Hence, when Salman Khan approached him with an offer to play the role of Abhyankar, the brother of Disha Patani in Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, he instantly agreed. "Like it always happens, Salman just called me and said there is a film being made by his family. He said it is a comedy and I have to play the role of a police officer. So I said ok. What I'm doing in this movie is all humour and one shouldn't take it seriously," Jackie told PTI.
"I believe that I haven't done many comedies in my career. It is not easy to do a comedy movie... It is after such a long time that I'm being offered comedy roles. I recently did a comedy movie Hello Charlie. After Radhe, I have Phone Bhoot, which is again a good script,” he added. The actor also added that a “Salman Khan movie is like a festival” and that “it serves the purpose of entertaining the audiences and distracting them from the reality for at least two hours."
Radhe is directed by Prabhudeva and stars Salman Khan in the lead role as an encounter specialist trying to clean his city from the menace of drugs. The film also stars Randeep Hooda, Disha Patani, besides Jackie Shroff.
