Menon, 45, who starred in critically acclaimed films 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi', 'Black Friday', 'Sarkar', 'Corporate' and 'Gulal', says his attempt is always to portray "wholesome characters" in cinema.
"People often accuse me of being serious. Have I played serious roles in 'Honeymoon Travels' and 'Sankat City'? It is just that after the films were made, producers did not have money to bombard it all over the place.
"If something funny happens then it happens. My intention is not to break any mold. Intrinsically, every human being is either funny or serious. But, I try and portray a wholesome human being there," Menon told PTI in an interview.
The film, which hits theatres on June 14, highlights the issue of medical negligence in our country.
"It is an assimilation of many real life stories as there are many cases of medical negligence in our country. My character is of a top surgeon, who has saved many lives but he commits a mistake in an emergency service," he said.
Though he has no fascinating for playing grey characters, Menon says he enjoys being an actor as it gives him a chance to tap different emotions from within.
