Krushna Abhishek: No one is thinking of me beyond comic roles

Krushna Abhishek is known for his comic timing. While the actor enjoys the various funny characters he plays, he does feel that he has been typecast. In a conversation with us, the actor shared how he hopes to explore other genres as well that would help him grow as an actor. He said, “People have only seen me in comic roles, whether it is TV or films . They have never seen me do anything else. I do believe that comedy is a tough genre, but I am capable of doing a lot more. I don’t understand why filmmakers don’t offer me emotional, intense and strong roles. I loved Rajkummar Rao ’s character in Srikant. I would have loved to play a visually-impaired man who makes it big.”

Krushna, who hopes to bag interesting roles in the future, further added, “All big producers and directors are aware of my work. I am not a newcomer; I have been here for two decades now. I am not saying I don’t have work, but no one is thinking of me beyond comic roles. Of course, I will never get tired of playing a woman on screen or doing comedy because that’s my forte, and I will continue entertaining people. I am glad I did bag some good films in my career, but I want to prove myself in other roles, and I hope they come my way soon.”

Krushna is currently seen in the second season of Laughter Chefs 2 with his wife and actress Kashmera Shah .
