Ali Asgar talks about his new show Star Bharat’s Akbar Ka Bal… Birbal

During these difficult times, Akbar Ka Bal… Birbal will make audiences laugh and take away their worries: Ali Asgar

Ali Asgar, who has impressed us with his acting chops in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, FIR and Jeannie Aur Juju, is currently seen in Star Bharat’s latest show Akbar Ka Bal… Birbal.

The talented star has also impressed us with his superb female nani/ dadi get up in The Kapil Sharma Show and Comedy Nights With Kapil.

In conversation with IWMBuzz.com, the actor talks about his new project, challenges and more.

How excited are you for this new show?

I am very excited as I have always wanted to play something like this in my career. I am very happy with the character as it has a lot of shades. I hope and pray that our hard work pays off.

How different is this from the other comedy shows?

Akbar and Birbal’s stories are iconic and the characters are legendary. Kids have seen them in feature films. Also, I feel that Akbar and Birbal have their characterization, history and attitude. Although Akbar is a king, he is helpless in a few situations and these particular moments will be funny and audiences will enjoy them. This show is for all generations as people know Akbar and Birbal and their history. It is a clean comedy too.

How has been the bond with the other actors who are on board for the show?

The casting of the show is amazing. They are all fabulous actors. It is pandemic time hence we just interact when we give our short otherwise we follow the social distancing rule. If it would be a normal situation then we would have a ‘fevicol’ bond. (laughs)

Three reasons why audiences should watch this show?

It is a clean comedy, all generation can watch the show. The characters are well defined and we have lavish sets that will give visual delight. During these difficult times, when people are dealing with mental and physical tension, this light-hearted show will make audiences laugh and take away their worries.

Any final message for fans…

I would only like to say that I am here only because of you people. Fans have made me. Their love and support motivate me. I would like them to watch this show and I am sure they will love it.
