Hirjee has been part of the successful "Golmaal" franchise, apart from featuring in movies like "Sunday", "Heyy Babyy" and "One Two Three".
The actor says he was offered a role in the adult comedy "Grand Masti" but could not be a part of it.
"There is no apprehension from my side that I do not want to do adult comedies. In fact, Indra Kumar (director) had called me for a part in 'Grand Masti' but I couldn't do it. In the future, if I get a chance to do something like that I will definitely do it," Hirjee told PTI today.
Hirjee feels the adult comedy genre in the country is misunderstood a lot.
"Adult comedy is a very misunderstood genre in our country, it is being panned a lot... The level of jokes in the film would be something what friends would crack while they are having fun. If a film is given an A certificate, the audience knows what they will be watching.
"You can't expect to watch an adult comedy hoping it would be a children's film. That is hypocrisy," he added.
The actor said it was a learning experience working with the "talented" star cast.
"I have worked with Johnny bhai (Johnny Lever) before too and I think he is a living legend. It is amazing to watch him perform. I have known Boman (Irani) for a long time and he is a fantastic actor. It has been a learning experience watching them perform."
Directed by Akashdeep Sabir, "Santa Banta Pvt Ltd" also stars Neha Dhupia, Lisa Haydon, Ram Kapoor, Vijay Raaz among others.
