Paresh Rawal Sets the Record Straight on Akshay Kumar Remarks
Paresh Rawal recently stirred up social media with remarks made during a lengthy interview with Lallantop, particularly regarding his relationship with fellow actor Akshay Kumar. When asked if Kumar was his friend, Rawal described him as a colleague, which sparked speculation about their friendship. In an exclusive follow-up, Rawal clarified his comments, emphasizing that he and Kumar remain friends despite the misunderstanding.
Clarification on Friendship
In his interview, Paresh Rawal expressed frustration over the uproar caused by his statement about Akshay Kumar. He explained that referring to Kumar as a colleague was not meant to downplay their relationship. Rawal stated, “When you say ‘friend,’ it means those whom you meet 5-6 times a month and whom you talk to several times a week.” He noted that both he and Kumar are not particularly social, which limits their interactions outside of work. Rawal reassured fans that there is no rift between them, saying, “Arre bhai, kuch nahin hua,” which translates to “Nothing has happened.”
Past Praise for Akshay Kumar
Despite the recent controversy, Rawal had previously spoken highly of Kumar in a different interview just two months prior. He expressed gratitude for their long-standing professional relationship, having collaborated on numerous films together. Rawal emphasized that his comments were simply meant to illustrate the different types of friendships one can have, including those formed in school and theater. He reiterated that his intention was not to create any misunderstanding about his bond with Kumar.
Current Collaborations
Both actors are currently working on three upcoming films: “Bhooth Bangla,” “Welcome To The Jungle,” and the highly anticipated “Hera Pheri 3.” These projects are part of successful franchises and are produced by Firoz A. Nadiadwallah. Rawal’s ongoing collaboration with Kumar highlights their professional rapport, further dispelling any rumors of discord between them.
Moving Forward
In light of the recent events, Paresh Rawal acknowledged that he will be more cautious with his words in the future. He expressed his intention to communicate more clearly to avoid further misunderstandings. “I’ll now spell out everything, in black and white,” he said, reflecting on the challenges of being misinterpreted in the public eye. Rawal’s commitment to clarity underscores the importance of communication in maintaining relationships, both personal and professional.
