Kunal Kohli’s Fanaa was particular for the very cause that it starred Aamir Khan and Kajol reverse one another for the primary time. When we consider the movie, we immediately recall their chemistry, which was fantastically supported by the music, composed by Salim-Suleiman. As the movie, which launched in 2006, completes 15 years in the present day. We revisited a few movies and interviews that gave a sneak-peek into what went behind making the movie and if Kajol and Aamir had been as appropriate off-screen as they had been on it.
Aamir prompt to solid Kajol
In a video posted by YRF Films on YouTube, Aamir spoke about how, the second he heard the script, he knew Kajol was match for the position of Zooni Qadri. “When I heard the script for the first time, I said there is only one person I can see in the role of Zooni and that is Kajol. But there is only one problem, if she will do the film, I might not be in it. And then I said if she gets to know I am a part of the film, she will say no.” He added, “I never thought we will ever get down to work together. It seemed impossible because we both have a different style of acting.”
Aamir and Kajol had unhealthy first impressions on one another
Aamir questioned Kajol about her first impression of him. “I didn’t have an impression. The only impression I wanted to make was my fingers prints on your neck. Beyond that, I thought and I still do think that you are completely and a little too much into you job. Despite that, you are not such a bad guy,” joked Kajol. Aamir, quite the opposite, felt that Kajol is a “brat” and can be troublesome to take care of.
“My impression of you was pathetic to begin with. I kind of felt that you are a brat and difficult to deal with. After doing Fanaa, it has changed. It was a pleasure to work with you, which is very rare,” the actor mentioned.
Aamir felt Fanaa is a mixture of industrial and artsy movie
In a video, Kajol requested Aamir about how he decides on a script. “I did different films for different reasons. There have been times I loved the script but had grave doubts about how it will work with the audience and at the box office. For instance, I loved Lagaan. There were so many things going against it. I eventually decided to produce it. I made it despite knowing that it might not work at box office. Rang De Basanti was same. It was so dicey. But I loved it. Raja Hindustani is a film I knew why I did because I wanted to reach the masses, connect with wider base of the audience. Fanaa is more of a mix of both worlds,” Aamir quipped.
Kajol was provided Karan Johar’s Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna
Kunal Kohli informed The Hindustan Times that he wasn’t certain if Kajol will comply with do Fanaa as a result of she was additionally provided Karan Johar’s Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna.
“Karan [Johar] was casting for KANK (Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna) at that time, and since Kajol and he were thick friends, Adi (Aditya Chopra) and I thought she would work in that film. But when we approached her, she gave her nod at the first narration,” he mentioned.
Aamir and Kajol starred in Fanaa for the primary time in a ceaselessly!
“Fanaa is the first and the last film till date where both the actors were paired opposite each other. So convincing both, Aamir and Kajol, and having them on board for the film remains my best memory of Fanaa,” Kunal informed HT.
