Sikandar director AR Murugadoss admits shooting with Salman Khan is 'not easy': 'We have to shoot at night as he turns up to sets only by 8 PM...'
Director AR Murugadoss faced challenges while filming 'Sikandar' with Salman Khan. Khan's late arrival at 8 PM disrupted the schedule. The crew filmed day scenes at night. This unusual timing affected child actors. They often fell asleep during shoots. Salman Khan defended his timings. He said he remains disciplined once on set. Shooting with a superstar comes with its own set of challenges, and director AR Murugadoss recently opened up about his experience working with Salman Khan on Sikandar. The filmmaker revealed that the actor's unique working style, including his habit of arriving on set late in the evening, forced the crew to adjust their schedules and even film day scenes at night, creating unexpected hurdles—especially for child actors. Late night shoots In a recent YouTube podcast with Valaipechu Voice, Murugadoss spoke candidly about his experience working with Salman Khan on Sikandar, set for release in 2025. He described the challenges of collaborating with a star like Salman, noting that it was 'not easy' due to the actor's distinctive working style. The Sikandar director revealed that the team often had to wait for the 59-year-old superstar, who typically arrived on set around 8:00 pm. Accustomed to early morning shoots, the crew had to film day sequences at night, which posed a major challenge for the team. He said it wasn't easy to shoot with a star like Salman Khan. Even day scenes had to be filmed at night because Salman typically arrived on set only by 8 PM. The crew, used to early morning shoots, had to adjust to this unusual schedule. Impact on fellow actors, especially children The director also added that Salman Khan's late arrival caused problems for other actors, particularly child artists, who often grew tired and fell asleep during the night shoots. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The director, 50, recalled having to film scenes with kids at 2:00 AM, even if the scene involved them coming home from school. Salman Khan responds to rumors Earlier this year, in an interview with India Today, Salman responded to rumors about his late arrivals on set. The Tiger 3 actor said that his 'timings are different' and emphasized that once he reaches the set, he doesn't return to his vanity van or sit idle, highlighting his own approach to maintaining discipline at work. Produced under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson, Sikandar marked AR Murugadoss' theatrical return to Bollywood after a nine-year hiatus. The director had earlier helmed three Hindi films: Ghajini, Akira, and Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty.

Housefull 5 actor Akashdeep Sabir: Sharing screen space with Big B was unforgettable
Akashdeep Sabir with Amitabh Bachchan Akashdeep Sabir, last seen in Housefull 5, recently shared screen space with Amitabh Bachchan for a Kaun Banega Crorepati advertisement. Talking about the experience, he says, 'Magic. Just the sheer thought of doing something involving the legend was a super feeling. My father was the world rights holder and co-producer of Saat Hindustani, which was Mr Bachchan's first film around 1969. More than half a century later, to be working with him as an actor was unforgettable.' Working with a legend like Amitabh Bachchan can make even seasoned actors nervous, but Akashdeep says he wasn't. 'Neither was the Big B intimidating, nor do I get intimidated by anyone's presence,' he shares with a smile, adding, 'The shots were done separately for the ad, but when I told him about our family's connection, he stood up. What a gracious man.' This wasn't their first meeting; years ago, Akashdeep had shot an ad with him, though back then he never mentioned the Saat Hindustani story. Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 Surpasses Salman Khan's Sikandar at the Box Office Akashdeep also recently shot an ad with Pankaj Tripathi . He shares, 'He is a rockstar. His innocence and believability make him such an accepted star. During the shoot, he told me his inspiration to become an actor, Manoj Bajpayee, had worked in a film called Ghaath directed by some Akashdeep. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Could This NEW Collagen Blend Finally Reduce Your Cellulite?

Over the years, he has worked with several stars including Tabu, Akshay Kumar, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Rajkummar Rao. Reflecting on those experiences, he says, 'The biggest lesson I've learnt is that acting is very hard work. Watching these great actors nail their characters film after film amazes me. Now that I'm acting more, I realise just how much effort goes into making it look effortless.' When asked if he adapts his performance depending on his co-actors, he is clear. 'No. I try to be the character and let the performance come out naturally. I'm waiting for challenging roles that will test my ability even more.'
