With these hits alongside superstars like Amitabh Bachchan, Govinda, Aamir Khan, and others, he established himself as the comedy king in the 90s. During his shooting of the 1996 film Raja, after being upset with a scene. He revealed in an interview, "The scene where I have to say that I don't get angry, that scene made me upset." He added that the director made him do the scene 4-5 times. When the director asked him to do the full scene in one go, in the last take he tore his clothes so that he doesn't have to do that take again.

The actor who was once a star not only in Bollywood but also on television, is now sitting jobless. He revealed in a recent interview that he is giving auditions wherever necessary and said, "Gone are the times where there used to be formula films with cabaret dance, two love songs, and the comedian coming and doing his bit and going away. That all has changed now. It is become story-oriented. So unless and until you become a part of the story, or you get to play a character of a person whose story is knitted with the story, you don't get work. I am slightly jobless right now. I want to work, but the right kind of roles are not coming my way." 

He further added that he is "seeking work regularly," and said, "I have an agent, a team looking out for scripts and plays. They let me know about it, and if I am required to go for an audition, go for an audition. Things have changed over a period of time, but one needs to be patient. Since covid, the working principle has been disrupted. Now people are becoming more sharper and progressive. It's become beautiful and I like the way we have to approach work now. I am waiting for people to call me. Also, I am sending out feelers that I am an actor looking for work. So, if there is a suitable role, then I'd love to do it."
