Amitabh Bachchan was as soon as changed over night by Sanjay Khan in a movie! Here’s how

It occurs just in India, goes a Govinda tune. These words never ever appear truer than when used to the events that take place in Bollywood. Even by the unforeseeable requirements of the Indian home entertainment market, this one takes the cake and the pastry shop.

Amitabh Bachchan was as soon as changed over night by Sanjay Khan in a movie! Here’s how

It occurred in early 1970 s when Amitabh Bachchan, fresh raw and having a hard time for a grip, signed a potboiler entitled Duniya Ka Mela The movie was directed by Kundan Kumar; a obscure name today, however a biggish weapon in the 1960 s and 70 s, Kundan Kumar helmed musical hits like Ganga Maiya Tohe Piyari Chadhaibo (1962, India’s very first Bhojpuri hit), Aulad (1968, the Jeetendra-Babita starrer best-known for the comical tune Jodi hamari jamegi kaise), Pardesi (1970, a slinky Mumtaz dancing to Chitragupta’s hit tunes) and Anokhi Ada (Jeetendra-Rekha’s very first struck together).

In 1973, prior to Amitabh Bachchan’s Zanjeer turned him overnight into India’s greatest star, Kundan Kumar released Duniya Ka Mela with Rekha and a struggler called Amitabh Bachchan. Distributors encouraged Kundan Kumar versus what they viewed as a reckless relocation. Till that point of time Amitabh had actually included just in a couple of movies such as like Saat Hindustani, Pyar Ki Kahani, Bombay To Goa, Parwana and Gehri Chaal. In the last 2 pointed out movies AB Sr. played atrocious functions and was seriously considering attempting his luck as a bad guy, a la Shatrughan Sinha.

But Kundan adhered to his weapons. He even shot a romantic duet Yeh chehra yeh zulfen jadoo sa kar rahe hain made up by the hit-makers Laxmikant-Pyarelal, and shot on Rekha and the almost-newcomer Amitabh Bachchan. This is when the suppliers threatened to revoke the task. They encouraged Kundan Kumar to eliminate the semi-newcomer and change him with somebody more viewer-friendly.

Bachchan was then sacked over night, and not even notified correctly of his loss. He was changed by the then-hot and salable Sanjay Khan (who appeared in movies as just ‘Sanjay’ in the credit titles at that time!) Sanjay (with or without the Khan) had actually provided a variety of successes in the late 60 s and early 70 s.

By the time Duniya Ka Mela was launched in 1974, Sanjay Khan’s profession was on the downslide and Amitabh Bachchan after Zanjeer took control of the whole home entertainment market.

The exact same duet tune from Duniya Ka Mela, which ended up as a flop, was shot with Bachchan and Rekha. It was as soon as again re-shot with Sanjay and Rekha.

Technically Duniya Ka Mela is the very first Amitabh-Rekha starrer, although the one that launched initially with them in the lead was Do Anjaane in 1976 (where think it not, Rekha elopes with Prem Chopra after weding Amitabh Bachchan).

Speaking of the experience Amitabh Bachchan states he holds definitely no animosities. “I was facing flops. I was grateful that they even considered me for the movie. I was changed by Mr. Sanjay Khan who was huge star throughout those times.”
