Akshay Kumar says some of his comic dialogues were written by him: ‘In life also mujhe masti bohot soojhti hai’

“If you see even De Dana Dhan, Bhaagam Bhaag, Wicked Sunny (Mujhse Shaadi Karoge), Raju or Hera Pheri, they are of the same genre, but someone is nice, someone is poor, someone is mediocre, but their thinking is the same. In life also, mujhe masti bohot soojhti hai (I think of funny things). I would think of something completely out of the box,” Akshay said.

He added, “Lot of dialogues, jo aap filmon mein dekhte ho, wo likhe hue nahi hai, wo mere andar se nikle hue hote hai aur you can figure it out ki ye koi writer likh hi nahi sakta (Many dialogues that you see are not written in the script. I make them up and you can figure it out that no writer can write these dialogues).”

Akshay Kumar started his career with action-packed films like Saugandh, Khiladi, Mohra, Khiladio Ka Khiladi among others. However, once he showed his comedy prowess with films like Hera Pheri, Mujhse Shaadi Karoge, Bhagam Bhag, Welcome among others, the audience accepted him as a comedy actor as well.

Akshay said that the credit for establishing him in the comedy genre goes to three people, who identified his potential as a comedy actor.

“Comedy is a very inbuilt thing, that somebody has to tap in. Like, if someone could tap it in me, it was Priyadarshan sahab and two more people – Rajkumar Santoshi and there was a boy who was a writer Neeraj Vohra. These three people made me feel that I can do this as well. Otherwise I started my career with action films and I wouldn’t have known about any other genre. I would have continued doing action,” he said.
