MUMBAI: After making his feature film debut in Tere Mere Sapne, Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi shot to stardom in the 2003 hit film Munna Bhai MBBS, where he played Circuit. Even though his character is still relevant today due to memes, Arshad had previously disclosed that Circuit was not his intended name. The Asur actor has disclosed that he improvised nearly every sequence in Munna Bhai MBBS.

Arshad stated in his recent interview with a popular reporter, “The original name of the character Circuit was Khujli. His clothes and his antics were very different. Naam sunte he aapko lagta hai yeh sirf khujata rahega. Usse zyada kya he karega. Toh woh pura package kharab hojata hai (Upon hearing the name, you might think it’ll just scratch you. But what more will it do? So, the whole package gets ruined).”
Arshad Warsi had revealed he insisted that Munna Bhai MBBS director Rajkumar Hirani change the name of the character and even the type of clothes he wore.
“The first film (Munna Bhai MBBS) I did, I had to kind of improvise a lot. Because at that time, Raju was not aware of my sense of humour and so I had to improvise a lot. Almost every scene and there are some scenes where everything was done by me,” he said.
Arshad's recommendations were warmly welcomed by Sanjay Dutt, who portrayed the movie's lead character. He said, “Me and Sanju had the chemistry. There was no ego between us. We enjoyed working with each other. There were times when I would say, ‘Sanju you say this joke, I will give this type of reaction.’ He would agree.”
