The King of Comedy
The New Indian Express
|May 17, 2026
Paresh Rawal speaks about his latest film, Bhooth Bangla, and why we need conviction to create slapstick comedies again.
Few actors understand cinematic chaos as well as Paresh Rawal, who remains the undisputed master of situational comedy in Hindi cinema.
Long before the internet dictated the language of humour, the actor, with his signature deadpan comedy, saw his characters become part of pop culture, such as Baburao Ganpatrao Apte from Hera Pheri, Velji Bhai in Chachi 420, Teja in Andaz Apna Apna, and Dr Ghunghroo in Welcome.
Some of these characters belong to the universe created through his collaboration with filmmaker Priyadarshan, with whom he shares 15 film credits. The partnership, which began 26 years ago, continues as the duo reunites for Bhooth Bangla, a horror comedy set in a palace in Mangalpur. Rawal says it stems from a mutual respect for the craft.
"The advantage of working with Priyadarshan," Rawal says, "is that he comes from a strong film background.
