"It is just a coincidence that 'Ready', 'Housefull 2' and 'Bol Bachchan' have come back-to-back. It is not that I have special affinity towards them that I end up choosing them. It is not that I want to do only comedy or I have affinity for comedy or that I want to prove myself in comedy," Asin told PTI.

After Anees Bazmee's 'Ready' opposite Salman Khan and Sajid Khan's multi-starrer comedy 'Housefull 2', Asin will be seen in Rohit Shetty's 'Bol Bachchan' alongside Ajay Devgn, Abhishek Bachchan and Prachi Desai.

The film is set to release on July 6.

"Coincidentally comedies have come my way but it is not that I have consciously chosen them. I am quite comfortable with comedy and I like doing it, especially when I have great co-stars... It is fun to do and is entertaining," she said.

 

But the southern beauty does not want to restrict herself to comedies. She wants to explore other genres as well, especially a romantic-comedy.

"I do feel that my entire side as an actor has not come out considering I am doing back-to-back comedies. I would be happy if something different comes my way. I wish I could do other things... Work in other genres but it is not a one-man show. I will have to wait for someone to write a script which is different, which gives me scope for performance and takes me out of the world," Asin said. MORE
