After
ace
comedian
Sunil
Grover,
Ali
Abbas
Zafar,
Atul
Agnihotri
and
Bhushan
Kumar
have
roped
in
Aasif
Sheikh,
popularly
known
as
Vibhuti
Narayan
Mishra
from
the
TV
show
Bhabiji
Ghar
Par
Hain
for
a
pivotal
role
in
Salman
Khan
starrer
Bharat.
Aasif
has
earlier
worked
with
Salman
in
Karan
Arjun,
Bandhan,
Pyaar
Kiya
To
Darna
Kya,
Dil
Ne
Jise
Apna
Kahaa,
Auzaarand
Shaadi
Karke
Phas
Gaya
Yaar.
Ali
Abbas
Zafar
shares,
"We
are
very
excited
to
work
with
Aasif,
he
has
brilliant
comic
timing
and
his
popularity
on
TV
is
phenomenal,
looking
forward
to
work
with
him".
"I
have
only
three
friends,
and
Atul
is
one
of
them,
so
I
was
more
than
happy
to
be
a
part
of
this
film.
Also,
I
really
like
Ali
Abbas
Zafar
as
a
director
and
I
can't
wait
to
collaborate
with
Salman
again.
I
am
playing
his
sister's
husband
in
the
film
who
always
delivers
these
one-liners
and
there
is
a
big
time
span
that
we
cover
together.
I
have
known
Salman
since
his
Maine
Pyar
Kiya
days.
He
is
a
very
special
person,"
says
Aasif,
adding
that
he
has
been
discussing
his
character
with
Ali
to
make
it
more
interesting.
"I
will
not
disappoint
you,"
he
promises.
Aasif
was
last
seen
in
Kader
Kashmiri's
2016
film
Aman
Ke
Farishtey.
Prod
him
on
why
he
hasn't
been
taking
up
more
films
and
he
says,
"I
have
been
getting
offers,
but
something
should
interest
me,
and
my
focus
presently
is
on
my
TV
show.
It
caters
to
people
from
ages
4
to
80.
In
fact,
just
a
few
days
ago,
while
I
was
waiting
in
my
car
for
the
signal
to
turn
green,
a
young
boy
of
about
four
from
the
car
next
to
mine
called
out
to
me
by
my
character's
name
-
Vibhu.
The
show
has
given
me
fame,
name
and
money
too
and
I
don't
want
to
lose
out
on
it
for
just
anything.
However,
Bharat
is
special,
and
I
can't
wait
to
start
work
on
it,"
smiles
Aasif,
sharing
one
of
the
memorable
incidents
while
working
with
Salman
on
a
previous
film.
"Whenever
I
shoot
with
him,
I
invariably
end
up
in
his
vanity
van
for
a
chat.
I
remember
one
day,
a
big
star
had
come
to
meet
Salman,
so
I
told
him
I'll
go
out,
but
he
insisted
that
I
stay
put
as
I
am
his
friend
too.
He
is
a
great
human
being
and
hasn't
changed
at
all
over
the
years,"
Aasif
signs
off.
Bharat
will
feature
Salman
Khan
sporting
five
different
looks
spanning
60
years,
wherein
a
crucial
part
will
showcase
the
actor
in
his
late
20s,
looking
much
leaner
and
younger.
Bharat
will
also
star
Priyanka
Chopra
alongside
Salman
Khan.
The
film
also
has
a
cast
comprising
of
Disha
Patani,
Tabu,
Sunil
Grover
in
pivotal
roles.
Directed
by
Ali
Abbas
Zafar
and
produced
by
Atul
Agnihotri's
Reel
Life
Production
Pvt.
Ltd
and
Bhushan
Kumar's
T-Series,
Bharat
is
slated
to
release
on
Eid
2019.
