Popular TV actor and producer, who is behind hit TV shows like Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai and Khichdi, said that he wants to do a negative role in a Prabhas film and perform some action sequences with the Baahubali star. Talking to PinkVilla, he said, “Some people think that i can only do comedy roles or play Gujarati parts, but I can do much more than that and I hope this new look of mine changes that perspective about me. In fact, not many know that before becoming a producer I had modelled for more than 85 brands. To be honest, I really want to do a film with Prabhas and play a negative part. Maybe have a fight scene too with him in the film. Imagine, if I can get into a brawl with Baahubali then I can do anything.” Also Read - Radhe Shyam Pre-teaser: Prabhas' loverboy avatar is endearing; to bring a Valentine's treat for fans
JD, who is celebrating his 52nd birthday, added, “What we collectively faced last year was both challenging and disturbing, and a lot of people from all over the world are still facing that. Unfortunately, this experience has affected our mental sanity and I wanted to do something to bring a smile on people’s face. As a filmmaker I can do that with our comedy shows.” Also Read - Week that was South: RRR theatrical rights, Krack box-office verdict, Adipurush fire
Speaking about his upcoming show, Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey, JD said, “In 2020, most people celebrated their birthday on a zoom call. But thankfully I have the opportunity to at least meet my friends, go out with family and celebrate with my team of Wagle Ki Duniya on the sets. Which is why when Aatish (Kapadia, co-producer) and I were brainstorming about our next show post Bhakharwadi, we chose to make Wagle Ki Duniya as it has all the elements that we are talking about right now. Even with Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai and Khichdi, we have met so many people who say that they still watch these shows whenever they are upset. And not only the fans but even big film stars and politicians have said that. I remember late Rishi Kapoor ji had once told us that he loves Khichdi and Sarabhai. He said whenever he felt low he would watch Khichdi: The Movie.” Also Read - Saif Ali Khan: Earlier, big screen was all about big films, big money, big actors, big ideas; it is changing now
