I never get bored of doing comedy: Shreyas Talpade

New Delhi, Nov 3: He may have started his career with films such as "Iqbal" and "Dil Dosti Etc" but Shreyas Talpade seems to have found a niche in comedy, a genre he really enjoys.

The actor said though there are drawbacks of being attached to a particular genre, he has no plans to move away from comedy.

"I don't want to move away from comedy. People interpret that if I take up some serious roles, I won't do comedy. That is not the case. I am often asked about not doing films like 'Iqbal'. But comedy is something that I really enjoy and I can never get bored of it," Talpade told PTI in an interview.

Stereotyping is also a form of acceptance, said Talpade.

"When you become a little more popular in a particular genre, then you automatically start getting roles that belong to that genre. Typecasting is bound to happen. You do films like 'Golmaal' which is watched by the entire country and if your character gets popular, then it's quite obvious that people relate you with comedy," he said.

He has become a regular on big-budget comedy dramas but Talpade said there was a time when he lost such films because he had the image of a serious actor.

The actor is currently doing web series "Baby Come Naa", which streams on ALT Balaji streaming platform.

Talpade admitted that the show's title is a bit suggestive.

"The title is a little suggestive, naughty. The series is also a little naughty. It is essentially a light-hearted comedy with certain moments which are naughty. But it is naughty, not vulgar. There's a very thin line between naughtiness and vulgarity so we've tried to maintain that line."

The actor said people demonise the content that they cannot watch with their families but they do want to view it.

"Research shows that usually the content that people look down upon, these kinds of content is the most watched. So they'll watch it the most, but then criticize it saying 'What is this?'

"For example, films like 'Masti' and 'Grand Masti' crossed Rs 100 crore but when their trailers came out, people had the same reaction. But people go and watch these movies and we're shocked that they crossed Rs 100 crore."

"Baby Come Naa" also features Kiku Sharda, Shefali Jariwala, Chunky Pandey and Mansi Scott.

Washington, Mar 11: Pop star Selena Gomez made some revelations about her personal life in a recent interview.

While explaining the lyrics of her song "Rare" on the 'Genius' YouTube channel, the 27-year-old said that there are times when she feels that she will ever be able to find a suitable partner for herself, reported Fox News.

"Some days when I wake up and I am annoyed and I am like, 'I am going to be alone forever.' But after that 15 minutes go away, I say to myself, 'I know that there is someone for everybody," the singer told in the seven-and-a-half minute long video.

However, she remains optimistic as she is still young and "this isn't the end all be all".

Elaborating upon the chorus of her song, Gomez opened up and said, "self-esteem and confidence is a constant struggle".

"It's getting better with time and age, but it will always be something that I'm working on," she added while explaining the lyrics further.

"So what I think is so important about this chorus is that it's acknowledging, 'Hey, I don't have it all. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I do know that I'm special,' and I think that is a humble approach of saying, 'Why don't you see that I am different?'" the singer added as reported by Fox News.

Touching upon her experiences from past relationships, she commented: "In certain relationships, I've heard and I've experienced and whatnot, I think men and women do it -- especially teenagers and young people in love -- is there's this satisfaction out of hurting someone because you know that they care. Purposefully putting someone down because they want to keep them at a level. I've had someone actually say that to me before".
