Aasif Sheikh, who is popularly known as Vibhuti Narayan Mishra (Vibhu) in Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain shared what urged him to switch back to TV from Bollywood. The actor has starred in many films previously like Bharat, Pardesi Babu, Karan Arjun and Mrityudaata.
In a chat with the actor, he said, “After Hum Log, I started doing films. For 12-15 years I didn’t do TV. I was only doing films. Then I realised there is respectability in TV and also good roles. Money flow is also consistent. In films, I wasn’t getting good roles. And nothing was outstanding. After doing around 6-7 films as a hero, it didn’t work out for me. So I took up TV. That time, my main aim was to survive and in TV finance was secured.”
He also spoke about how everyone is lively on the sets of Bhabiji and though he is one of the senior actors in the group, he doesn’t let the generation gap come between them.
Aasif has been a part of many comedy shows and shared that he has gotten comfortable doing sitcoms. But he also admitted, he is quite serious in real life and cannot have mannerisms like Vibhuti since he has two grown-up children.
The actor has been a part of Bhabiji for five years now and has earned immense love of fans.
