While addressing
the press recently, he was all praise for
Bhansali, whom he said is one of the most
dedicated directors in the film industry.
He even quoted an incident that occurred
in the sets of Khamoshi, Bhansali’s
first film, when the director was so broke
that he had to buy flowers he needed for
a shot in the film on credit from the florist.
He added that it was not an isolated incident
and the director faced such situations even
to this day, as he spends all his money
on his films, which is one of the reasons
most of his films overshot the budget. With
Columbia Tri-Star having produced Saawariya,
we doubt that anything even vaguely close
to this would have transpired during its
making. Guess Salman knows better.
