A journey to a forbidden land always has a hundred stories to tell. And Arshad Warsi is hardly a person who would keep an interesting story to himself.
Regarding his experience of shooting for 'Kabul Express', he recounts how the entire cast and crew was required to be stationed at the spots identified for them. Not someone who could be satisfied with a journey to just a location or two, he was soon bored of either being there on location or confined to a hotel. So one fine day, he just took a guard along with him and sneaked out of his hotel room to venture into a Kabul market.
His reason for doing that? He mainly wanted to check out the place since it was a one time experience of being in Kabul. He realized the fact that he may never return to this place again in his lifetime and hence it was his one and only chance to check out the marketplace, the gullies, the kind of things that were sold, and different eatables.
Recounting it as one of the most interesting times in his life, he concluded by saying that it was quite a high to be actually venturing out all on his own with just his director Kabir Khan knowing about his outing.
