Multistarrers have helped me more: Tusshar Kapoor

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Tusshar Kapoor, who has been part of hits like Golmaal and the latest The Dirty Picture, says multistarrers have helped him more than his solo films.

The 35-year-old actor's multistarring ventures like critically acclaimed film Shor in the City, comic caperKyaa Kool Hai Hum, gangster film Shootout at Lokhandwala, have earned accolades for him.

"For me as an actor it is my work, be it in solo films or films with an ensemble cast. I need to get into the skin ofthe character. But somehow multistarrers have helped me a lot more than solo films. Be it the Golmaal' series or The Dirty Picture. Working on such films have been a very rewarding experience for me," Tusshar told PTI.

When asked if he wants to stick to multistarrers or do more solo films, he said, "I definitely want to do solo films.I enjoy doing solo roles because it gives me ample scope, whereas in a multistarrer the credit is shared," he added.

The actor will be seen next in Samir Karnik's Char Din Ki Chandni, a solo film opposite Kulraj Randhawa of Yamla Pagla Deewana fame.

"It is an out-an-out comedy I am positive about the film. The script is entertaining and is backed by good productionhouse. It is full of fun, colour, romance and music and is apt for Holi," Tusshar said.

The film will hit the theatres this Friday.

Tusshar, who has been playing the mute character 'Lucky' in Rohit Shetty's Golmaal series since 2006, has notrestricted himself to just comedies. He has also dabbled with serious roles.

"Directors have been kind enough to offer me variety of roles. After Golmaal, which was a hard core comedy I wasalso offered serious roles in films. I have been very fortunate not to be just limited to doing comic films," he said.

Tusshar made his debut with Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai opposite Kareena Kapoor in 2001. The next two years followedwith a list of box office flops.

He said that he is happy with his career but there is much more left to achieve.

"Initially, I did make some bloopers with my choice of films but after 2004 things started looking up for me. Istarted getting good roles. I am happy with the way my career has shaped up but I am not satisfied. I want to push myselfmore and do the unexpected," he said.

The actor, who is the son of yesteryear star Jeetendra and brother of TV cesarina-film producer Ekta Kapoor says hehas no interest to go behind the camera.

"I don't have any interest to direct films. I may venture into production but not right now. I am happy to be an actor," he said.

This year the actor will also be seen in Shootout at Wadala and Kyaa Super Kool Hai Hum.
