Kapil Sharma reveals he was offered 9 films after Zwigato trailer released; says, “I don’t want to do films just to earn money”

It all happened during his conversation with News18. The 41-year-old actor asserted, “After the trailer of Zwigato was released, I was offered nine films. And all these films were in the serious zone. But many of those writers weren’t serious about their own work.”

Adding further, the Firangi actor said, “I’m thankful to God for being able to do some good work and earn well by being within my own comfort zone. But if I’m required to step out of that space and go work under the scorching sun, the script should be good, so that it feels worth it. I only want to do films that touch my heart. It was a priority for me and it will always remain a priority. I don’t want to do films just to earn money. I’ve earned enough. I’m very rich (laughs).”

Speaking of the forthcoming film, Kapil said, “It was extremely hot when we shot for Zwigato in Bhubaneshwar. But we knew that we were making a good film and it will be appreciated by the audience. I knew that it will become a part of my body of work and my children will grow up and be very proud of me thinking that I did some good work in a film besides the fun things that I do on television.”

Zwigato is slated to release on March 17. Besides Kapil, the film also features Shahana Goswami.
