“Presence of mind, having a sense of humor, and having a director who gives you the freedom to improvise makes it all happen. Munna Bhai is all that. Raju is a good editor. It was so funny. I wish someone had captured it. So, what used to happen? I would come to him and tell him that Raju aisa karen, wo uske mai Chilli Chicken bulata hoon aur isko aise karta hoon usko waise karta hon (Should I call him a chilli chicken and what if I improvise this scene like this). Raju would go into a flash-forward mode when he would think and say, haan acha lagega (Yes, this would look good) (laughs). In his head, he is editing the whole scene.”
Arshad Warsi said while speaking to Mashable India.
Munna Bhai significantly boosted Arshad Warsi’s career, bringing out his potential to pull comedy roles. Arshad also received the Zee Cine Award for Best Actor
In A Comic Role for Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.
