'Aamir ko nahi jhel sakta...', This actor spills the beans on why Mahesh Bhatt left Ghulam after shooting for 2 years, he is...
Bollywood's Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir Khan, is often known for his very serious attitude towards his work, but this perfectionism sometimes becomes a burden on his collaborations . Something similar happened during the film 'Ghulam' released in 1998, when director Mahesh Bhatt left midway. Why Mahesh Bhatt Left Aamir Khan's Ghulam Famous actor-director Deepak Tijori has made a new revelation in this matter. Aamir Khan got the title of 'Mr. Perfectionist' at the very beginning of his career, but after working in few films with Mahesh Bhatt, many differences came between the two great stalwarts of Cinema. Deepak Tijori himself was a part of the film 'Ghulam'. Recently, in a conversation with Bollywood Bubble, he recalled this incident and explained why Mahesh Bhatt refused to do this film and left the film. Deepak Tijori told that Mahesh Bhatt was initially directing the film 'Ghulam', but he left the film. Deepak said, 'I came to know that Bhatt sahab has left 'Ghulam', he said, Main nahi kar sakta, main Aamir ko nahi jhel sakta. He said the film was already being made for two years and during this time, Mahesh Bhatt decided to back out. After this, director Vikram Bhatt took charge and completed the film after 2 years, i.e., the film took 4 years to be made.' What Mahesh Bhatt Said On Aamir Khan? Earlier, in an old interview with Screen, Mahesh Bhatt himself had told that he told Aamir Khan, 'Films are not so important to me that I can give my whole life to them. If I say so, I would be lying.' In an interview with Radio Nasha, Mahesh Bhatt also said that once Aamir had discussed his hat in 'Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin' for 10 hours . In another interview shared on the YouTube channel of Wild Films India, Mahesh Bhatt also said, 'Working on Ghulam was not a good experience for me, especially when a person is burdened by his greatness, then that burden is also felt by those working with him. In such a situation, making a film in a limited budget becomes more difficult.' How Many Projects Were Done By Mahesh Bhatt and Aamir Khan? Before Ghulam, Mahesh Bhatt and Aamir Khan had worked together in 'Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin alongside Pooja Bhatt' and 'Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke alongside Juhi Chawla', which were successful at the box office .
