Nonetheless, the actor has given several remarkable performances in comedy films, and on the occasion of his 42nd birthday, let’s revisit 5 best of them.
In the film, the actor was seen as a slothful character, who avoids any form of strenuous work to earn a livelihood. Hence, he chooses to get married to a wealthy woman. In the role of Goti, he delivered some highly entertaining comic scenes.
In his character of Laxman, a man who earns a living by deceiving others, Kunal gave a fantastic performance and his clever one-liners kept the audience hooked. After the success of Golmaal 3, he continued to entertain the fans with his top-notch acting in Golmaal Again.
Go Goa Gone, directed by Raj and DK, is a zombie action comedy that stars Saif Ali Khan, Vir Das, Anand Tiwari, and Puja Gupta, along with Kunal Kemmu. The story follows a group of friends who travel to Goa for a party, however, they soon find themselves trapped on an island overrun by zombies. Considered as India’s first zombie film, the film has gradually attained cult status, and Kunal was loved in the film, thanks to his superb comedic timing.
The comic drama revolves around a regular man Nandan Kumar, whose life takes a turn when he discovers a suitcase full of money. His amusing dialogues and acting kept the viewers engaged throughout.
Directed by Vipul Mehta, the film is based on the famous Gujarati play Sajan Re Jhooth Mat Bolo. The black comedy, set in Lucknow, revolves around a miserly person who saves money to send his parents on a pilgrimage. However, when he loses his parents in a flood, he realises that he would get only half the compensation amount due to corruption. Kunal plays Jamuna Prasad Pandey, and his comic timing in the film is much appreciated.
We wish the actor a very Happy Birthday!
