The Boman Irani & Arjun Rampal partnership
Between 2006 and 2010, they barely worked apart — 4 films in 4 years. For 4 years, a Boman–Arjun film arrived almost every year. From Don: The Chase Begins Again (2006) to Housefull (2010).
It started with Don: The Chase Begins Again (2006).
The shape of the work
The 2000s account for 75% of everything they made together. The 2000s belonged to Don: The Chase Begins Again; the 2010s to Housefull. Boman Irani acted in every film; Arjun Rampal acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- They first shared screen space in 'I See You' (2006), a rom-com that was also Arjun Rampal's first production venture. Boman Irani was cast as the quirky psychiatrist — a role that let him improvise most of his lines, which Arjun later said saved the film from being a total disaster.
- In 'Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.' (2007), Boman and Arjun played polar opposites — Boman was a nervous, henpecked husband while Arjun was a cool, mysterious stranger. Director Reema Kagti deliberately paired them because Boman's frantic energy forced Arjun to slow down and underplay, creating a tension that made their one shared scene the most talked-about in the film.
- Their third film together, 'Housefull' (2010), was the first time they played brothers on screen. The film's massive box office success (over ₹100 crore) directly led to the 'Housefull' franchise, which has now spawned five sequels — but Boman and Arjun never shared a scene in any of them again.
- During the shoot of 'Housefull', Boman and Arjun discovered they both shared a passion for photography. They spent weekends driving around Mumbai's old neighborhoods, taking black-and-white photos of abandoned buildings. Arjun later gifted Boman a framed print of one of their shots — a crumbling Art Deco cinema in South Mumbai.
- Arjun Rampal once said about Boman Irani: 'He’s the only actor who can make me laugh so hard I forget my lines. On the set of 'Housefull', we had to do 17 takes of one scene because I kept cracking up. Sajid Khan was furious, but Boman just winked at me and said, 'Good, we get to do it again.'
