Paresh Rawal was born on May 30, 1955, into a middle-class Gujarati family in Bombay (now Mumbai). He attended Narsee Monjee College of Commerce & Economics in Vile Parle, Mumbai. After completing college, Paresh was eager to become financially independent.

The actor on The Anupam Kher Show, mentioned that pocket money wasn’t a part of his family’s upbringing, so he decided to find a job at a bank. He worked at Bank of Baroda for 1.5 months but left after just three days, as he felt he didn’t fit in. To make ends meet, he borrowed money from his then-girlfriend, Swaroop Sampat, an actress and Miss India 1979 winner. They eventually married in 1987 and had two sons, Aditya and Anirudh.

Paresh began his film career with the Gujarati film Naseeb Ni Balihari in 1982. His first Hindi film was Holi (1984), directed by Meera Nair and starring Aamir Khan. He found success after appearing in Sunny Deol's Arjun (1985). The following year, he solidified his position as an actor by playing the antagonist in Sanjay Dutt's Naam (1986). In the years that followed, Paresh often took on roles as the main villain, a character with gray shades, or the villain's sidekick in films like Dacait, Kabzaa, Ram Lakhan, Swarg, Zulm Ki Hukumat, and Damini.

In 2000, Paresh Rawal portrayed Baburao Ganpatrao Apte, a Maharashtrian garage owner, in Priyadarshan's Hera Pheri. His performance as Baburao won him a loyal fanbase and several awards. He reprised the character in Phir Hera Pheri (2006) and will do so again in Hera Pheri 3. Paresh and Priyadarshan developed a strong collaboration, resulting in several successful comedies. He also starred in the social comedy OMG: Oh My God and played a gray-shade character in Table No 21.
