Sharman Joshi was asked how does he feel as Golmaal completes 14 years. He replied that it is really wonderful. He said that Golmaal turned out to be a very special film.

Sharma Joshi shared his experience of being a part of Golmaal. He said that he was really excited. This was his first opportunity to work with Ajay Devgn. He recalled the first meeting that they had. The actor mentioned that they had reached a day or two before the shoot. The entire cast had met at a given place for a reading. He stated that when Ajay Devgn arrived he was “so enamoured” by the Singham star that he was just staring at him. Sharma also realised that he had to “snap out of this zone” to work with Ajay. The Dhol star said that Ajay Devgn was “very friendly and easy-going”. The Singham star looked like a quiet-kind-of-guy to Sharman which was just like him.

Sharman Joshi stated that had a great time working with everybody on Golmaal. He mentioned that he made friends with Arshad Warsi and Tusshar Kapoor also. The actor revealed that Rimi Sen was a “notorious one” on the set. She was the prankster amongst the team. He said that it was a long schedule and on the go so they spent a lot of time together and had great fun.

Sharman Joshi revealed how did he come on board for Golmaal. He said that he comes from Gujarati theatre and this film was based on a Gujarati play. He mentioned that Neeraj Vohra recommended his name to Rohit Shetty and that is how he came aboard. The movie is based on Ghar Ghar by Harsh Shivsharan.

Sharma Joshi said that he had a “great experience” working with Rohit Shetty. He mentioned that the filmmaker knew what he wanted and they were always on the go. He recalled that on the first day, the first shot they gave, they were running from their house in the film to the house next door and while they were running Sharman was communicating with Tusshar Kapoor in sign language. At the end of that shot, Rohit said that both of them are going to make this particular structure that they have made work and they will make the movie a hit. Sharma Joshi stated that he does not remember Rohit Shetty’s exact words, but it was to this effect that they have something good going on over here. He mentioned that all four of them were there in the scene. In the first scene of the film, only Rohit knew that he had a winner on hand, he noted.
