Paresh Rawal has always upped his own game when it comes to the genre of comedy.

While having a chat with IANS, the 66-year-old star also talked about the changed definition of comedy in Hindi cinema.

"Yes, definitely (it has changed). The buffoonery which was there was also a variety but the kind of comedy which is coming in now is high and good comedy, which I enjoy doing," Paresh said. The actor, who is gearing up for the release of his next 'Hum Do Humare Do', added: "There has definitely been a change. I have anyway never been in support of vulgar comedy or run down someone and make fun of physical deformity. That is disgusting. I think the first high comedy I did was 'Andaz Apna Apna'."
