Emraan Hashmi, who is making his maiden foray into comedy with Madhur Bhandarkar's directorial venture "Dil Toh Bachchan Hai Ji", says he was initially sceptical about taking up the role.

"I was initially sceptical about the film. But Madhur (Bhandarkar) has brought in a certain amount of realism even in this genre and that made the film very interesting. So then I was keen," Emraan told IANS.
