The Link Between Sharman Joshi’s Role In 3 Idiots & PVR Toilet

CNN-IBN caught up with Sharman Joshi and got him talking about the film and how he bagged the role of an idiot.

“We had a great time. We stayed in the hostels, ate the mess food and up on the stairs of the place there was a lounge where all the students would go and drink and party. Most of the times we joined them and yes it was an official bar,” he reveals. And Joshi also revealed how he bagged a role in the Rajkumar Hirani film.

“I first bumped into Rajkumar Hirani in the bathroom of PVR. He said he wanted to work with me and narrated the script of 3 Idiots. We were inside the bathroom for 20 minutes while my wife waited alone outside. The second time I bumped into him in the same bathroom, and I was like so if I need to find you, I should come to this bathroom, and that is when we fixed up a meeting. I was clear then that if we do meet, we should meet in a decent place like an office, not in the bathroom,” he says.

Well this is probably the first case of a public toilet turning a lucky charm of sorts. Source
