Recently, In a recent interaction on Long Drive with Mr Faisu Arshad Warsi shared how Circuit could have taken a different trajectory if not for the trust and creative freedom granted by director Rajkumar Hirani. He said, “Tum dekho, woh role kya tha? Villain ke peeche chaar paanch lukhhe khade hote hai na, un mese mai ek tha. You tell me how many actors like those four guys do you remember?”

Further to this, Arshad also talks about Circuit being a turning point in his career, saying, “It was a risk that I took. It was my destiny that I had Raju with me as a director and Sanju as my co-actor. Vidhu Vinod Chopra had clearly told me that I would be one of the four goons with slightly extra lines. He was very honest. I knew that Sanju was a very secure actor. He was never insecure and Raju had given me that freedom.”

This is indeed a testament that Rajkumar Hirani has always been a favorite director of his actors. The way he gives open hands to his actors indeed helps them to boost their character.
