Vir Hirani, the budding actor and son of reputed filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, marked his acting debut with his father’s OTT debut project, Pritam and Pedro. The series has now become the most-watched show on JioHotstar, leading to praises and appreciation for the whole team. As this was Vir’s debut, it holds a special place in his heart, and his experience became even more memorable and beautiful because of his co-star Arshad Warsi, who played his partner in crime on the show.
On his social media, Vir shared a photo with Arshad from the series in their characters Pritam and Pedro, and in the caption, he thanked the well-known Bollywood star for his guidance, saying, “Dearest Arshad Sir,
Stepping into my first project was exciting…but also scary. Having you by my side made all the difference.
You constantly guided me and encouraged me, and somehow made me feel like every suggestion of yours was my own idea.
Pedro style. Never taking the credit.
Today, Pritam and Pedro is receiving so much love from the audience. I was lucky enough to receive that same love from you from day one.
Love you, sir.”
However, while the note was emotional and heartfelt, what caught our attention was Arshad Warsi’s reply to this post, prompting the fans and netizens to laugh and relate to it. Arshad, replying to Vir in the comments, wrote, “In your fathers words.. “Rulaiga kya pagle”
You know I am always there for you, Vir. You have a bright future ahead of you. Just continue being the humble, hard-working, nice guy that you are… Love you.”
Pritam and Pedro is a cybercrime web series on JioHotstar, produced by Rajkumar Hirani and directed by Avinash Arun. The show has Vikrant Massey in a grey character.
