Mumbai, June 04: Arbaaz Khan is working on his image makeover and signing films which allow him to show the comic side of his personality.
'Though I'm perceived as this serious kind of guy, I'm actually very funny. I hope my friends would vouch for that,' Arbaaz told.
In Apoorva Lakhia's just released 'Shootout At Lokhandwala', Arbaaz plays a cop and provides many light moments. And the same goes for Feroz Naidiadwala's 'Fool N Final' where he plays a funny gangster.
Arbaaz started as an antihero in Abbas-Mastan's 'Daraar'. Ever since then he has been pretty much typecast as the serious guy even in the comic films with his brothers Salman Khan and Sohail Khan - 'Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya' and 'Hello Brother'.
'And in the next film that we're doing together, David Dhawan's remake of 'Amar Akbar Anthony', I'm again cast as the serious cop Amar, the role that Vinod Khanna did in the original.
'I guess Salman and Sohail will have all those funny lines as Anthony and Akbar. But in my forthcoming films I'm seriously looking at being funny. And I've made sure I had some laughs watching myself in my next few films.'
Any fear of doing a remake of a film that's a certified evergreen?
'It's Salman who has more at stake in 'Amar Akbar Anthony'. What have I got to lose? It can only benefit me. To me, playing a role done by Vinod Khanna is a boon.'
