Avnish & Sooraj Barjatya on not casting Salman for Maine Pyaar Kiya, shouting at Abhishek & Dono

The Rajshri world isn’t an unknown territory for any film buff and from that world of the Prems and Nishas, we have another generation kickstarting with Dev and Meghna. While Dono marks the introduction of Rajveer Deol and Paloma Dhillon into the world of movies, it is also a standout debut by Sooraj Barjatya’s able son Avnish Barjatya. In this episode on Bollywood Bubble with Nayandeep Rakshit, the father-son duo join us for an exclusive chat where they speak about their home ground – the value system at Rajshri and how they plan to take it forward keeping the new generation in mind. Sooraj ji retraces his start in the industry with Maine Pyaar Kiya and how it all happened – from convincing his father to getting a script and finding the right actors for it. He reveals that he had planned to tell Salman Khan that he won’t be casting him, and he couldn’t given how authentic Salman was to him as a human. He shares how people thought of dubbing Salman’s voice in Maine Pyaar Kiya because they felt it was not upto the mark. And how it eventually remained in his voice itself. Not just that, Sooraj ji also shares how he’s lost his calm on Abhishek Bachchan and handled star tantrums on sets. Avnish, on the other hand, discuss how he’s dealt with the pressure to deliver and having his father and the team by his side for support.
