THIS actor feels doing ‘Baghban’ was the biggest mistake of his career

Ravi Chopra’s ‘Baghban’ starring Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini in the lead roles is said to be a cult film. The family drama also starred Salman Khan, Aman Verma, Samir Soni, Saahil Chadha and Nasir Kazi in pivotal roles. However one of these actors feels that doing the movie was the biggest mistake of his career. Well, we are talking about Aman Verma.

Recently, while interacting with a leading daily, Aman stated, “‘Baghban’ I feel was the biggest mistake that I made in my career. Initially, the role was to be played by someone else and then I came into the picture. It was a role of a man who had a grown up daughter. ‘Baghban’ happened in 2003 and that time I was 31. I was playing a dad to Rimi Sen. I could not refuse it as I was very close to Ravi Chopra. I did a lot of projects with him. After being part of ‘Baghban’, people actually thought that I am a matured man and I started getting roles of only dads post that.”

“I would agree that back in time, I was on the heavier side hence I used to look much older. Today, at the age of 44, I look younger and people usually say that it’s a reverse cycle that is working on me. All said and done, it was a movie with Mr Bachchan and I couldn’t say no. I did ask Ravi to offer me the younger brother’s role but he knew I will do justice to the character of Ajay,” the actor added.

Well, Aman couldn’t do any wonders on the big screen, but has made a mark in Television industry.
