Comedian Jaaved Jaaferi recently voiced his desire for a spin-off series involving the much-loved characters of Adi and Manav from the ‘Dhamaal‘ movie series. During his recent conversation with actor and content creator Bhuvan Bam, Jaaved discussed his career, his iconic roles, and his thoughts on comedy. Fans even went bold to suggest that they should be trending and campaign for a revival of the comedic duo on screens with the hashtag #BringBackAdiManav.
When Bhuvan asked Jaaved which of the characters he felt deserved a spin-off, Jaaved sat back for a second before turning up with his choice-the hilarious duo of Manav Shrivastav, played by himself, and Aditya Shrivastav, played by Arshad Warsi-from the Dhamaal franchise.”In the Dhamaal movies, the characters of Adi and Manav were so well-loved, especially by the younger crowd,” said Jaaved referring to the slapstick nature of the films. “I even put it to Indra Kumar, the director of Dhamaal, that web series alone would suffice for Adi and Manav.”
Jaaved further explained how his father Jagdeep’s comedy was rooted in the experiences of everyday Indians. “My father always told me that his audience wasn’t the people living in skyscrapers in Nariman Point or Cuffe Parade,” Jaaved revealed. “His audience was from small towns, farmers, rickshaw drivers—people who represent 90-95% of India. He performed for them, and they were the ones who laughed the hardest at his jokes.”
While Jaaved admits that his father’s brand of humor may not have appealed to the more subtle tastes of urban audiences, he emphasized that Jagdeep never let criticism get to him. “He didn’t care about the critics because his audience was laughing and they understood his comedy. That’s all that mattered to him.”
Reflecting on his own career, Jaaved noted how comedy has evolved and how he has adapted to different styles. “Dhamaal’s humor is slapstick, so I had to play the character accordingly,” he explained. “But subtle comedy requires a different approach, and I’ve always aimed to match the mood of the movie.”
