Dec 21, 2012 IANS

Mumbai, Dec 21 (IANS) Versatile actor Paresh Rawal, known for being a part of clean comedy films, also enjoys the dark, sex comedies genre, which is fast becoming popular in Bollywood. He says he would love to be part of such films.

"I would love to be part of dark comedies. I love them! They are no-nonsense, no spoonfeeding, and the norms and cliches are left behind. It is something new. I would love to work in such films," Paresh told IANS.

In the recent past, comedies like "Delhi Belly", "Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum", "Phas Gaye Re Obama", found wide appreciation from the audience.

Asked if he has been offered any such film, he said: "I do get such offers, but I am looking for a good script. Sometimes I feel bad I lost out on a film like 'Phas Gaya Re Obama'. I could not do because I was not happy with my part. I knew it was a good film, but I never visualised the film will be made like this. I enjoyed watching that film."

Paresh has done various films, but he took comedy in Hindi films to a new level with films like "Hera Pheri", "Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?" and "Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye!".
