Om Puri: 'I am a trained actor, 3 years I was in drama school and 2 years in film school. I did not come to bollywood because of looks. I've never been greedy, I never overbook myself, I will work for 3 months and wait to see if I can get any opportunity that is suitable for me. King of Bollywood is becoming my favourite film. I have never been in a movie which has a lot of publicity, but genuinely I feel like doing this movie, so I did it and I am very happy about it, because in this film, I feel like I am the hero/protagonist of the movie. King of Bollywood is a 2004 British-Indian, English and Hindi language, comedy film written, edited, directed and produced by Piyush Jha.
