Paresh Rawal has been in the news this year for several reasons. In mid-May, he grabbed headlines after Bollywood Hungama broke the viral story that he had quit Hera Pheri 3. It led to a brouhaha with Akshay Kumar filing a case against the veteran actor. The matter was finally resolved after both actors met and buried the hatchet. Just before this historic controversy, Paresh Rawal was in the news after he claimed in an interview with The Lallantop that he consumed his own urine to nurse himself back to health. This statement was also widely talked about, with many criticizing the actor for indulging in such a practice.
EXPLOSIVE: Paresh Rawal HITS back at those criticizing him over his urine statement: “Are they having a problem because I didn’t offer them? Are they feeling, ‘Yaar yeh akele pee gaye aur humko nahin diya?’!”
Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to Paresh Rawal in the first week of May, just before the Hera Pheri 3 controversy and after the interview of The Lallantop was released. When asked to comment on the controversy that emerged after his comments on drinking urine, he hit back at those criticizing him over it. He thundered, “I haven’t offered them (urine), right? Or are they having a problem because I didn’t offer them? Are they feeling, ‘Yaar yeh akele pee gaye aur humko nahin diya?’!”
Paresh Rawal further said, “It’s an incident of my life which took place 40 years ago. Woh maine bol diya. Usme kya ho gaya? People enjoy making a mountain out of a molehill. Karne do unko mazaa!”
When asked if those who have benefited from consuming urine reached out to him after seeing his interview, Paresh Rawal revealed, “A lot of people have, but I don’t want to get into it.”
In the same interview, he also confessed that “maatha kharab ho gaya, yaar” after his quote that “Akshay Kumar is a colleague and not a friend” was misinterpreted. He explained, “I simply said that he’s a colleague. When you say ‘friend’, it means those whom you meet 5-6 times a month and whom you talk to several times a week. Moreover, neither Akshay nor I are social. So, there’s no question of us bumping into any party. Hence, I called him a colleague. And this resulted in (speculations). People are asking ‘Kya ho gaya (aap dono ke beech)?’. Arre bhai, kuch nahin hua.”
