No doubt, he is seen in the lead in every Punjabi movie he has been a part of but we missed him being a lead face in the B-Town. Nevertheless he has managed to impress the audience even with his supporting characters he has played, be it Raja Awasthi from ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ or Zaheer Ali in ‘Munna Bhai MBBS’.

So, in an interview, Jimmy revealed that he could not afford the luxury to wait for the lead roles as he didn’t have anyone to support him in the industry. He always took whatever interesting came his way. He never thought that he would only do the main lead and then sit home for two years waiting for the next project. A lot many has even questioned his choice stating that he has type casted supporting roles. He replies back stating that it was the best option for him at that time. Infact, he is proud and glad for the choice that he made. He never had the reservation and got anything on platter.
