He made us giggle relentlessly with his unmatched avatars as Gutthi and Dr Mashhoor Gulati on the idiot boxes. And now comedian Sunil Grover will be seen in  National Award winning filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj’s upcoming comedydrama, Chhuriyaan. We gather that Grover is not paired opposite the two actresses, Sanya Malhotra and Radhika Madan, the think tank of the movie is currently on the lookout for two actors to play their respective husbands.

Popular Daily Mumbai Mirror reports that Visha is happy to have Sunil Grover and Vijay Raaz as the two unconventional male leads for the movie.  While Sunil plays a crucial and major part and Vishal was surprised to know what a big star he is across India. It is also reported that the 40-year-old Haryana-born performer, who was discovered by the late satirist Jaspal Bhatti while studying for a theatre degree, forayed into filmdom. After making his  Bollywood debut in 1998 as a barber in the Ajay Devgn-Kajol-starrer Pyar Toh Hona Hi Tha, Sunil went on to play supporting characters in The Legend of Bhagat Singh, Ghajini, Gabbar is Back and Baaghi.

In his intercation with Mumbai Mirror Vishal was all praise for the comedian. “He is a wonderful actor and person. I have noticed that everyone is eager to interact with him and now I am eager to shoot a great part with him too,” exulted Vishal. It is also learnt that the whole cast of the film is learning the beautiful Rajasthani dialect to suit the demands of the script. Sunil we gather is already a pro at it and we are only excited to see the man showcase his charm in the film.
