What: Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah shared that he didn’t find his cult classic black comedy ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro’ funny while filming it.
Furthermore… He says, “That was a time I believed deeply in the method, believability and logic. I found many situations in the film ludicrous and I didn’t find anything funny while shooting that film. And maybe that’s why it is funny because none of us were laughing at ourselves while performing it. I realised I was mistaken, and I was being unreasonable, I should have tried to get on director Kundan Shah’s wavelength instead of trying to get the film on mine.”
We say: Humour is serious business and as Naseeruddin Shah said, none of the actors were laughing while performing, no wonder Jaane Do Yaaro was such an iconic film.
