Navjot Singh Sidhu has recently expressed that he is open to working for Pakistani comedy show, if a good quality project is offered to him.

The 51-year-old said that he would be overwhelmed if such project comes along, as it's been quite some time since he visited Pakistan and Wasim Akram, Salim Malik, Ejaz Ahmed, Waqar Younus and Javed Sheikh are some of his good friends from Pakistan, the Express Tribune reported.

Pakistani theatre artists have also played a significant part in mushrooming stage comedy in India and many of India's comedians enjoy watching Umer Sharif's stage shows, he further added.

The former Indian cricketer was of the opinion that Pakistani artists such as Ali Hasan, Irfan Malik, Shakeel Siddiqui and many others have performed in India and Indian audiences have always welcomed them with open arms, so now the he also wants to carry on the same attitude by showing his will to embrace a Pakistani comedy show.
