Jimmy Sheirgill on his Hindi films Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi and Hasil, in Punjab

From the archive record

Jimmy Sheirgill says "Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi is an entertaining film which had entertainment and drama. I think the biggest plus point of that film was the tussle between the two men for the actress which was not evident for everyone." Sheirgill debuted with Gulzar`s Maachis in 1996, which was a movie based on terrorism in Punjab. The film, which also starred Tabu, Om Puri, and Chandrachur Singh, tasted critical and commercial success. He then appeared in Aditya Chopra`s runaway hit Mohabbatein, along with Uday Chopra and Jugal Hansraj. Released in 1999, the romantic drama movie also starred superstars like Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. He further went on to do important roles in films like Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai (2002), Haasil (2003), Munna Bhai MBBS (2003),
