'Salman is a very hard-working actor whose diligence I have to commend despite the fact that during the shoot, my heart was in my mouth.'
The original Gadar: Ek Prem Katha has been re-mastered at a cost of Rs 2 crore (Rs 20 million). Not only that, the newly enhanced viewing experience will have extra scenes that were not a part of the film when it originally released.
While Ayushmann Khurrana gets our nod to play Aamir Khan in Lagaan, it's time to recast the team of Gadar.
'All the actresses we approached for the role of Sakeena were demanding a lot of money. After a point, we collectively decided that we would cast a new face opposite Sunny Deol and the money that we would save by doing so, we would give it to Amrish Puriji and get him onboard for the role of Mayor Ashraf Ali. I was completely okay with signing a new heroine but there is no alternative to Amrish Puriji in the industry.'
Director Anil Sharma gives us an insight into the Deol men, and other Bollywood Greats.
