India, Jan. 6 -- Priyadarshan's Hulchul remains one of fans' favourite comedy films, but years after its release, the film has found itself at the centre of a fresh controversy. Actor Arshad Warsi recently described his experience working on Hulchul as "bad," claiming that the role he was promised was much bigger than what he ultimately played.

Reacting to Arshad's remarks, director Priyadarshan has now shared his disappointment. In an interview with Mid-Day, the filmmaker expressed his upset after reading Arshad's comments and shock over the accusations. "I was very upset when I read what he said. I could be wrong and maybe it has been misinterpreted, but if he has complained, I am shocked," Priyadarshan stated.
