Making his digital debut with Asura, Arshad Warsi steers clear of the genre to avoid being typecast

Arshad Warsi has displayed his flair for comedy with his outings in the Munna Bhai and Golmaal franchise. However, as he forays into the digital space with Voot's original series, Asura, the actor says he would like to restrict the funny man image to the big screen.
"I realised this character was in a similar space as my role in Sehar (2005). I had done the film over a decade back, but no filmmaker explored that side of me after the movie. So, I have decided that I don't want to do comedy on the OTT platform. I don't want to fall into the same trap again. I'll continue doing comedy in cinema, but my desire to do serious roles will be fulfilled on the web."
