Actor Sunil Grover is definitely one of the finest Indian comedians. He has made his audience laugh out loud with his witty one-liners, expressions and on screen comedy timing. Mostly known for his comedic roles the actor says that he is fine with being boxed as he sees it as acceptance and not getting limited.

“It is okay to be boxed. I am fine with it because eventually people will box you with what they see and like. Boxing also means acceptance that they accept you in a certain way so rather than it being said in a way that it is limiting, no I think it is acceptance,” Sunil said.

Role-playing with Sunil Grover

Talking about the time when he was offered Vishal Bhardwaj’s comedy drama ‘Pataakha’ in 2018, the actor said “But sometimes destiny has plans for you which are beyond your control like when we talk about ‘Pataakha’ when that happened, when it was offered I did not have anything else. I was off television and it was a great offer. So, I said ‘okay, let’s do it’.”

The 43-year-old shared that soon more work followed such as the Salman Khan-starrer ‘Bharat’ and the web-series ‘Taandav’.”They were roles which I had thought would not come my way and they started coming…Forget the roles, the mediums also have new mediums approaching…I was kind of not prepared or I had not planned,” he added.

Sunil also said that being appreciated for his latest web-series ‘Sunflower’ makes him feel like a newcomer. “And I feel like a newcomer and I feel that fresh wave of communicating with audiences and approaching new work,” he concluded.
