'Dev Anand and Nasir Hussain got drunk and fought with each other at Sadhna's engagement party,' recalls Aamir Khan: 'They were hitting each other'

Time of India2 days ago

Aamir Khan
who has been in the industry for over three decades also has a deep know-how about the history of Indian cinema. His father Tahir Hussain was a well-known producer, director and his uncle Nasir Hussain has made movies like 'Caravan', 'Tumsa Nahin Dekha', 'Dil Deke Dekho' among others.
Thus, Aamir also has a lot of stories to share most times.
In a recent interview, he recalled an incident where his uncle Nasir Hussain and
Dev Anand
got into a huge fight at Sadhna's engagement party. He said in an interview with Mashable India, "Nasir was very close to Vijay Anand and Nasir was also friends with Dev Anand. So Teesri Manzil was being made with Dev Anand originally. Dev was acting and Nasir was directing Teesri Manzil.'
He shared that originally, Dev Anand was supposed to be a part of 'Teesri Manzil'. "Dev Sahab was acting, Nasir Sahab was directing Teesri Manzil. In the same year, he was making a film called Baharon Ke Sapne with Rajesh Khanna, who was a newcomer that time. Vijay Anand was directing that film," he said.
At this party, Nasir heard Dev Anand complaining that he gave a small film like 'Baharon Ke Sapne' with a newcomer. But he himself is directing a big film like 'Teesri Manzil'.

So, they got into a fight after getting drunk at this party. 'Nasir saab said there is no such thing as a small or big film. They started fighting and were hitting each other,' Aamir recalled with a laugh and added that he later confirmed this story with Sadhna, who said, 'Haan haan, dono daru peeke jhagda kar rahe the (Yes, they were both drunk and fighting.
)'
Later, Nasir told Vijay Anand to direct 'Teesri Manzil' while he said he will make 'Baharon Ke Sapne'. Aamir added, "However, Nasir said, 'Dev nahi hoga film mein. He's out." So eventually, Shammi Kapoor came on board for 'Teesri Manzil'.

Raid 2 OTT Premiere: When And Where To Watch Ajay Devgn's Latest Film Online

Last Updated: Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 to stream on Netflix from June 27. Here's everything you need to know about the film's OTT release, cast, plot, and more. After its theatrical run earlier this year, Raid 2 is now set to make its way to the digital space. The sequel to the 2018 sleeper hit Raid will begin streaming on Netflix starting June 27, 2025, offering viewers a gripping dive back into the world of white-collar crime, corruption, and high-stakes justice. Headlined once again by Ajay Devgn as the stoic and relentless IRS officer Amay Patnaik, Raid 2 draws inspiration from the real-life 1980s income tax raid on businessman Sardar Inder Singh — one of the longest and most sensational raids in Indian history. While the film hit theatres on May 1, reactions from critics and audiences have been mixed, with praise for its performances and real-world relevance, and some critique around its pacing and narrative execution. Taking over the female lead duties from Ileana D'Cruz is Vaani Kapoor, who stars opposite Devgn in this installment. The film also features Riteish Deshmukh in a key role, adding further star power to the ensemble. Much like its predecessor, Raid 2 focuses on the cat-and-mouse game between the taxman and those trying to game the system — only this time, the stakes are higher and the opposition even more powerful. Devgn reprises his role as Amay Patnaik, an upright Indian Revenue Service officer who won't back down, no matter how influential his targets may be. Directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, who also helmed the original, the film is written by Ritesh Shah, Jaideep Yadav, Karan Vyas, and Gupta himself. Backed by Panorama Studios and T-Series, the production boasts a strong lineup of producers including Abhishek Pathak, Pragya Singh, Krishan Kumar, Gaurav Nanda, Bhushan Kumar, and Kumar Mangat Pathak. For fans of investigative thrillers rooted in reality, Raid 2 promises an intense watch. And for those who missed it in theatres, the Netflix premiere on June 27 is a date to mark.

Aamir Khan Supports 'Boycott Turkey' Calls For Backing Pakistan: 'Bahut Galat Kiya'

Last Updated: Aamir Khan addressed backlash over meetings with Turkish leaders, criticising Turkey for supporting Pakistan during Op Sindoor despite India's aid during the 2023 earthquake. Turkey and Azerbaijan strained ties with India and faced boycott calls for backing Pakistan during Operation Sindoor. This was around the same time that Bollywood actor Aamir Khan's photos from his past meetings with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and First Lady Emine Erdogan emerged, leading to massive backlash. Aamir finally addressed the pictures and slammed Turkey for siding with Pakistan even after India was one of the first ones to help the country during the 2023 earthquake. Aamir Khan, who seldom makes a political comment, spoke about Turkey's alleged backing to Pakistan by supplying combat drones during Operation Sindoor. Speaking to Rajat Sharma on Aap Ki Adalat, the actor said, 'Turkey has done the wrong thing (Turkey ne bahut galat kiya), and every Indian is hurt. During the 2023 earthquake in Turkey, the Indian government was the first to send humanitarian aid. At that time, neither I nor our government knew what Turkey would do later." Khan clarified that his meetings with the Turkish leaders in 2017 and 2020 were held in good faith, at a time when there were no signs of the geopolitical shifts that would later unfold. 'When I met President Erdogan, I did not know that his country would support actions against India seven years later," he said. When asked about a viral photo of him meeting Turkish First Lady Emine Erdogan, Aamir said, 'As a public figure representing India abroad, it is customary to accept diplomatic courtesies. When invited for tea, I couldn't refuse. But let me reiterate — what Turkey has done now is completely wrong, and it has deeply hurt us. I was angry too." Aamir Khan also spoke about India's rising boycott calls for Turkey. 'They are doing the right thing. We must not support a country that is siding with those who attack us. We extended friendship during their time of need, and in return, they supported Pakistan. Bahut hi galat baat hai," he said in the same interview. All you need to know about 'Boycott Turkey and Azerbaijan' movement While the rest of the world condemned the heinous terror attack in J&K's Pahalgam on April 22, 2024, Turkey not only sided with Pakistan, but Turkish Songar drones were also deployed by the Pakistan Army to target India's military bases and civilian infrastructure. This support from Turkey came after the global condemnation of the terror attack in J&K's Pahalgam, with Turkish Songar drones being used by the Pakistan Army against India's military and civilian targets. Shiv Sena UBT MP Priyanka Chaturvedi posted a video on X, urging citizens to boycott Turkey and Azerbaijan for their support of Pakistan after the Kashmir attack. She also advised against visiting these two countries, which heavily rely on tourism, and suggested travelling to nations that support India in its fight against terrorism. First Published:
