Stand-up comedian-turned-actor Vir Das says that he wouldn’t have done sex comedy
‘Mastizaade’ if any actress other than Sunny Leone would’ve been cast opposite him.
“What I enjoyed the most working with Sunny is that she hasn’t done comedy till now but she is genuinely very funny. Our track gave us the chance to do a lot of really cool comedy," said Vir.
“And after watching the film, that’s what you'll talk about... that she is legitimately very funny. I would not have done this film if any other actress was on board,” he added.
“I love comedy, comedy is my life. But I haven’t done this genre of comedy
before. I've never done a commercial masala film. And I’ve been waiting since years for that perfect package — good script, actress, director — this came together very nicely,” he said.
