There is a lot of excitement among the fans about Rohit Shetty’s next comedy franchise Golmaal 5. This fantasy-comedy film is going to return with its original star cast. The special thing is that for the first time in this franchise, the role of villain will be played by a female actress. This franchise of comedy films directed by Rohit Shetty started in 2006 with the title ‘Golmaal: Fun Unlimited’.

‘Golmaal: Fun Unlimited’ was followed by its sequel ‘Golmaal Returns’ two years later, followed by ‘Golmaal 3’ in 2010 and ‘Golmaal Again’ in 2017. The story of this series revolves around a group of mischievous and carefree friends, who often get caught in absurd and chaotic situations. These include Gopal (Ajay Devgan), Madhav (Arshad Warsi), Laxman (Shreyas Talpade) and Lucky (Tusshar Kapoor).

These actors will be in Golmaal 5
An insider told PTI about Golmaal 5 – The fifth part will be a fantasy comedy. We have finalized the names of all the main male actors. All the main actors including Ajay, Arshad, Tusshar, Shreyas, Kunal are making a comeback and this time Sharman will also be with them. Apart from this, Johnny Lever, Ashwini Kaleskar, Mukesh Tiwari, Sanjay Mishra and all other actors will also be there.

Entry of female villain in the franchise for the first time
The source further said- We are still looking for the lead actress opposite Ajay Devgan. The talks are still in the initial stages. The names of two other important characters are yet to be decided, one of which is a villain and the other is a funny gangster-like character. The story has been written in such a way that the negative character will be played by a woman.

Arshad Warsi has always been seen impressing people with his acting. He is becoming famous in whatever film or series he is seen in. Arshad got his real recognition by playing the character of Sarket in Munna Bhai MBBS. He was very much liked in this film. Arshad’s film Munna Bhai Chale America was also going to be released. The poster of the film was also released. But later it was shelved. Arshad has given the reason behind the closure of the film. Also told that he had left many films for this.

Arshad Warsi told in an interview to The Lallantop why the makers finally decided to close the film. Arshad said – As far as I know, the story of Shahrukh Khan’s My Name is Khan was very similar to Munna Bhai Chale America. Munna Bhai goes to America, Munna Bhai and I both meet the President of the US.

Rajkumar Hirani is particular about his work

Arshad further said- ‘Director Rajkumar Hirani is very particular about originality. He doesn’t like it at all when his work matches other films. Not only this, after coming to know about Oh My God, he had written the second half of PK several times.

Munna Bhai was about to refuse MBBS
Arshad Warsi told that he was going to refuse Munna Bhai MBBS because at that time he felt that he was stuck playing small roles and was afraid that Sarket was also going to be a similar character. He said- ‘I did not want to do any more small roles. So I was going to tell him that sir please call me if there is a good role. If I keep doing small roles like this, my career will be over.

Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi is married to Maria Goretti. Arshak recently recalled the early days of his marriage with Maria and told how hesitant he was when Maria’s Catholic parents came to know about their relationship. The actor told that initially there was nervousness, but with time and understanding everything gradually changed.

Maria’s parents were nervous about her marriage with Arshad
Talking to Lallantop, Arshad said that Maria’s parents were mostly tensed because it was an inter-religion marriage, which they had not thought of for their daughter. Arshad said, “They were a little nervous. A Catholic girl and a Muslim boy. Both are very decent. There is nothing in their life except Jesus Christ. They were a little nervous because they expected Maria to marry another Catholic boy who would do a 9-5 job, and this caught the Muslim boy and he was also jobless.”

Maria’s parents considered Arshad a good person at heart.
Arshad further told that even at that time, Maria’s parents believed that he was a good person and they were confident that he would take care of their daughter. With time, his belief changed into full acceptance. Arshad said, “Deep down he knew he was a good person. He had full faith that he would take care of our daughter. But gradually he realized that there is no one better than me. Now he is very happy and lives with me. His self-respect forces him to live in his own house, but we somehow managed to bring him here.”

How did Arshad and Maria’s love story start?
The actor also told about the beginning of his love story with Maria. Arshad first met Maria in Xavier College, where he had gone to play the role of a judge in a competition. Working with Maria in theater deepened their friendship. This friendship gradually blossomed into love, although Arshad admitted that it took time and effort, as Maria finally agreed after several refusals.

Let us tell you that Arshad and Maria got married in 1996 and they have two children, son Zaiq Warsi and daughter Zeyne Warsi.
