In 2004 he starred in Rajkumar Santoshi's Khakee alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn and Aishwarya Rai.

In 2006 he starred in a sequel to Hera Pheri titled Phir Hera Pheri.

As was the former, the sequel became a huge success at the box office.

Later that year he starred alongside Salman Khan in the romantic musical Jaan-E-Mann.

The film was a well anticipated release, and despite receiving positive reviews from critics, did not do as well as expected at the box office.

Though the film under-performed, his role as a shy, lovable nerd was praised.

He ended the year with the comedy Bhagam Bhag, which was a success.
