Ibrahim Ali Khan got yelled at by Sarzameen director Kayoze Irani for being late to work: ‘I was aggressive, stopped talking to him'
The only piece of advice that actor Boman Irani gave his son, Kayoze, on the first day of production on the film Sarzameen, was to not lose his temper. Kayoze had worked as an assistant director on several projects previously, and was susceptible to getting angry on set. In an interview, he admitted that he yelled on a few occasions during Sarzameen, and had an altercation with Ibrahim Ali Khan that resulted in him shutting the young actor out entirely. Sarzameen was the first film that Ibrahim shot for, although the Netflix rom-com Nadaaniyan was the one that was first released. Both movies have been co-produced by Karan Johar. Appearing on Cyrus Broacha's podcast, Kayoze acknowledged the trolling that Ibrahim faced for his performance in Nadaaniyan, and claimed that the young actor was being praised for his work in Sarzameen. 'This role was a lot more suited to him. I was actually quite excited about his casting. We did six months of workshops; his first day of shoot was on Sarzameen. Ibrahim brought his own life experiences into the character. And the truth is, Ibrahim and me had the most to prove on this film. I wanted to prove that there is a star out there. I'm so happy that he's got such a positive reaction this time around.' Also read – Dhadak 2: Shazia Iqbal destroys ancient Bollywood Dharma in the best Karan Johar production since Jigra Reflecting on their altercation, Kayoze admitted that he lost his cool when Ibrahim showed up late to set one day. 'I lost it once on him. I like punctuality. Once, I didn't talk to him all day. I sulked, but I think that was the best scene he did. When I was not talking to him is when he did his best scene. I lost it. This was in Mumbai, but we were shooting very far, in Vasai or something. I shouted a little bit. I can't repeat the language. I said, 'Next time you are late to the set…' And I stopped. I lost it. I was a little aggressive.' Kayoze said that even Ibrahim's 'harshest critics' will have to admit that he has a striking screen presence, and admitted that he knew there was work to be done on him before shooting could begin. 'That's why we gave ourselves six months,' he said. Sarzameen opened to negative reviews. Kayoze said that he is working on a comedy film next.
