In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, talking about the popularity of his character, Omi said, “I think it is just that it was such a huge character. It's larger than life. It's sort of going to follow me throughout my films. And that's always going to be the sort of litmus test for all of my films. So when you have scripts that are not as to that level, you'll always want to remember that film.”

“The reason that I've been so successful is because of 3 Idiots. But it's also a curse that I have to deal with in a way. So in the future, I'm definitely going to do different things,” he added.

After 3 Idiots, Omi Vaidya was seen in films like Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji, Desi Boyz, Players, Blackmail, and Jodi Breakers.
