Veteran actor Dilip Kumar, who was present in the audience during his annual day play in college, was very impressed with Kader's performance and soon cast him in his next film. 

His first attempt at comedy was with films Himmatwala and Aaj Ka Daur. He started doing main comedy roles from 1989 onwards with films like Sikka, Kishen Kanhaiya, Hum, Bol Radha Bol and continued through the '90s with comedy roles.  When it comes to comedy, Kader was always the first choice of the makers and was known for his perfect coming timings. The late actor formed a formidable partnership with Govinda. They gave many hits together such as Coolie No. 1, Dulhe Raja, Hero No. 1, Raja Babu and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.
