‘Aamir Was Upset…’: Anupam Kher Recalls Incident When Aamir Khan Complained About Him To Mahesh Bhatt

Anupam Kher has worked with Aamir Khan in several Bollywood projects like Dil, Parampara, and Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi. Recently, Anupam Kher recalled a memorable incident from the sets of Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi, which starred Aamir Khan along with Pooja Bhatt. Anupam Kher recalled how Aamir Khan stepped out of line when he complained about his performance to Bhatt, ‘even though he was just an actor’ in the film. Mahesh Bhatt didn’t keep the complaint to himself and shared it with Anupam Kher.

Anupam Kher recently talked about the incident during an interview with Siddharth Kannan and shared, “He wasn’t upset with me, he disliked my interpretation of the climax scene. I play a man who tells his daughter to abandon her-to-be husband and run away from the ‘mandap’. In my imagination, only a man who is not in his senses would make such a suggestion, so I decided to play the scene comedically. Aamir didn’t like it, apparently. So, he went and complained to Bhatt saab even though he was just an actor like me.”

Anupam Kher further added, “Bhatt saab told me what Aamir had said, and that’s when mere andar ka National School of Drama ka gold medalist jaag gaya (my inner drama school gold medalist was unleashed). I asked Bhatt saab, ‘You’re okay with my performance?’ He said he is, so I told him, ‘Then let’s continue as we were’.”
