Which actor troubled Farah Khan in her debut film?
Bollywood director and choreographer Farah Khan talked about her first-ever directorial experience, ‘Main Hoon Na,’ where she worked with veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah. She also discussed how she completed his work ahead of schedule.She recently appeared in an interview on the YouTube channel of IFTDA Official.
Farah Khan, a director and choreographer, recalled her first film’s production with ‘moody’ Naseeruddin Shah and revealed why she completed his shoot in six days instead of ten days.”I initially approached Naseeruddin Shah for a role, but he was being his usual moody self.
He made a fuss and declined, saying he couldn’t do it. However, I later offered him a 10-day role as Shahrukh’s father, and I said him, ‘Come on, at least take on this character.’ Naseeruddin Shah gave me such a hard time that I wrapped up his 10-day role in just six days! I told the team, ‘Let’s finish his shooting quickly’. But despite the challenges, he’s been absolutely wonderful to work with. I love Naseer.”All’s well that ends well. We hope the two collaborate on another venture soon
