Arshad Warsi has delighted viewers with popular movies like Dhamaal, Munna Bhai MBBS, Golmaal, Jolly LLB and many more. The actor, however, isn't proud of one of his ventures, which stars Akshaye Khanna and Kareena Kapoor in the lead role. While Arshad Warsi usually doesn't complain about his profession, he disclosed that Hulchul in particular was 'bad experience'. He even said that he was somewhat 'tricked' into working on the movie, directed by Priyadarshan.

Arshad Warsi talked about Hulchul, a movie he views as an outlier to his otherwise successful career. The actor claimed that author Neeraj Vora persuaded him to work in the 2004 comedy movie in a recent interview with The Lallantop. "Hulchul was a problem. Humare Neeraj Vohra sahab the, I was busy doing films, and he said, 'Arshad, ek film hai aur Priyadarshan director hai. I said wow, done, what am I doing in it?. He said tune Hera Pheri dekhi hai? Usmein jo Akshay Kumar ka role hai vohi same role hai.' I was like done, it's a damn good role," he recalled.

The Jolly LLB 3 actor said, "But in that film I realised there is a huge difference between 'aap dono iss film main dost hain aur aap iss film mein inke dost hain. 'We reached the set aur aisa mujhe dhakka laga. and I don't think Priyadarshan knew about it'. It's not his fault. I was given a shirt which was till my knee length and three-fourths sleeves. Samanjh nahi aaraha tha nighty hai yaa shirt. I was like this is a mess."

Arshad Warsi shared, "But since I had given a commitment, I did the film. I wore my own clothes in half of the picture. So that was a bad experience."
