"Funniest Comedian MUKESH TIWARI vs SANDI TOKSVIG"

Mukesh Tiwari (born 24 August 1969) is an Indian film actor known for playing negative and comic roles in Bollywood and several other Indian language films. He began his acting career with the Hindi film China Gate, in which he played Jageera. His best known character is Vasooli, a recurring don, in the Golmaal film series. Tiwari studied at the National School of Drama and was termed as the best actor present in the university at the time by numerous professors. This led to him bagging his first film China Gate, which has been critically acclaimed as one of the finest works of Bollywood and was also in contention to be nominated for the Oscars. He rose to fame with the recurring character of Vasooli, a comical don loosely modeled on Sanjay Dutt's character Raghu from Vaastav: The Reality, in the Rohit Shetty-directed Golmaal film series, starring Ajay Devgn, Tusshar Kapoor and Arshad Warsi, along with Sharman Joshi, Shreyas Talpade and Kunal Khemu. His dialogue from the third installment, "Abbey jaldi bol, kal subah Panvel nikalna hai" (translated as: "Hey, speak quickly, we have to leave Panvel tomorrow morning"), became widely popular on social media with a number of memes based on it.
