He adds, “I remember this one time, I was completely ready for my shot with all the makeup on, and suddenly I got the news that my father is no more. However, I still completed my scenes and everyone told me to go back home to my dad. It’s the job of an actor that the show must go on.”
Clean comedy is rare today, says Rohitashv, adding, “Currently, Bhabiji is definitely one of the few clean comedy shows on air, Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah is also good. The journey is definitely challenging because every day you have to do comedy. It is a challenge for actor as well as the writers and for the director. Every day, you have to keep up the same energy and play the same character. Presenting a clean comedy with the same energy that was there on the first day is definitely a challenging job.”
There are many actors who he looks up to when it comes to clean comedy. “There are many comedy actors who do good work. I have seen Woody Helen, Charlie Chaplin, they are all big comedy actors. Talking about Hindi cinema, I like Paresh Raval, Babban Irani and Om Puri. I loved Hera Pheri and Paresh Raval did a great job in that. Boman Irani in 3 idiots, Munna Bhai MBBS, Khosla Ka Ghosla are some of the amazing movies. Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro of Om Puri sir can never be forgotten. I respect these people a lot,” he says.
