Aamir Khan threatened to leave Taare Zameen Par over Amole Gupte's direction; lost confidence after watching ‘amateurish' rushes: ‘No second chance'
Aamir Khan has often been accused of taking over projects from directors or dominating them to the point of sidelining the filmmaker. These speculations gained momentum after the actor took over the direction of Taare Zameen Par from the film's writer, Amole Gupte. In a recent interaction, Aamir broke down the entire incident and shared what went on behind the scenes that compelled him to take over the film's direction. Speaking to Lallantop, Aamir revealed that he had known Amole since their school days and the two were good friends, having done theatre together. He shared that Amole had mentioned he wanted to approach Akshaye Khanna for his film. Curiously, Aamir asked Amole about the project and offered to recommend Amole's film to the Chhaava actor. Aamir heard the script of the film and liked it so much that he expressed his willingness to produce and star in it. He said, 'I really liked the story and I cried while hearing it. I promised Amole to call Akshaye and recommend it to him, but I questioned Amole, 'Why are you not offering this film to me?' and Amole said he thought I wouldn't be interested.' After this, the first discussion Amole and Aamir had was about direction. Aamir revealed that Amole expressed his wish to direct the film, but the Sarfarosh actor wasn't convinced about his skills as a director and told him so upfront. Aamir said, 'I told Amole, if you want me to produce the film then you won't be able to direct it because I don't have the confidence in you as a director.' After Aamir refused, Amole asked for one chance to direct the film, but the superstar again refused point-blank. So, Amole agreed to step back from direction, and they began searching for another director. Meanwhile, Aamir wasn't satisfied with the last portion of the film's script and sat with Amole for a week to rework it. During this time, while they were rewriting the script, Aamir had a change of heart and decided to give Amole a chance at direction, seeing his conviction and emotional connection to the story. Amole took the reins as director and started shooting the film with the child actors. While Aamir wasn't involved during the first week of filming, his team raised an alarm over Amole's direction and asked Aamir to view the rushes. After watching the footage, Aamir found the direction amateurish and decided to replace him. Sharing the same, he said, 'Rushes were amateurish, according to me. I didn't like the rushes at all.' Aamir recalled confronting Amole and even offering to back out of the film both as an actor and producer, willing to bear all the expenses incurred during the first week of shooting as he wasn't convinced with Amole's direction. He said, 'Amole called the rushes 'golden'. If he would have admitted that his work as a director is falling short, I would have given him a second chance but at that time I realised our thinking is very different.' He added, 'I told Amole that my confidence on you as a director is finished. I am giving this subject back to you, make this film somewhere else. I can't work on this as an actor or producer. I will write all the expenses I have incurred on this.' Aamir admitted that Amole asked 'for a second chance,' but he refused to grant it. Later, Amole backed out as director himself. While they were still looking for someone to direct the film, Aamir shared that it was Amole who suggested that Aamir should take on the role of director.

'Kuberaa' actor Rashmika Mandanna on her parents' initial hesitation about showbiz: "My dad wanted me in business, not films"
Actress Rashmika Mandanna recently opened up about her South Indian upbringing, her family's initial resistance to her film career, and the emotional journey that followed. "Dad wanted me to join his business" Rashmika shared with We The Women that she was never raised with acting as a career option in mind. Having completed her Bachelor's degree in Journalism, Psychology, and English Literature, she was equally drawn to the world of media. 'It would have been lovely either way,' she said when it was highlighted that she could have been a journalist. However, her father had other plans—he wanted her to join and support his business. Coming from a conservative South Indian family, the idea of entering the film industry was seen with suspicion and concern. 'They Were Just Being Protective' Speaking about her parents' mindset, Rashmika said, 'I think in South Indian families, at least back in the day, entering the film industry was considered wrong. They didn't understand how it worked.' As the only child for 16 years before her younger sister was born, Rashmika was especially precious to her parents. 'They were super possessive and protective,' she recalled with affection. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Despite their worries, she eventually pursued acting, trusting her instincts.

Rashmika Mandanna defends Sandeep Reddy Vanga's 'Animal'; says, "Nobody is forcing anyone to go and watch..."
Picture Credit: X With the cinema evolving frame by frame, filmmakers are now taking the risk of bringing the dark shades on the big screen unapologetically. One of the most recent and strong examples of the same is 'Animal. ' Though the movie was released in December 2023, the conversation around it continues. The toxic masculinity of the male protagonist played by Ranbir Kapoor sparked a debate. While several lauded Ranbir for his acting chops, several others criticised him for bringing such a messed-up character to the big screen. Filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga and the female protagonist Rashmika Mandanna also faced the heat. Speaking about the criticism that the movie faced, Rashmika in her recent media interaction said that a film must be perceived just as a film and not a means to judge an actor's real-life personality based on the character that he or she is portraying. Rashmika Mandanna's take on Animal's backlash It has been said over the years that what you see on the big screen leaves a big impact on your personal life. The debates around cinema influencing and shaping society have been going on for decades. 'Animal' was also criticised for setting a bad example for society. Addressing the same, Rashmika, during her appearance at Mojo Story, said, "If you're someone who is going to get influenced by a film, then watch your kind of films. ' 'Nobody is forcing anybody to go and watch every film. If that were the case, every film would be a blockbuster,' she added. When asked if the backlash bothered her, the actress mentioned that it didn't bother her and explained, 'There are gray characters in each one of us, we're never black and white, we have gray in us. It's just that Sandeep Reddy Vanga spoke about a messed-up character. That's about it. Seems to me that people have celebrated it, as it made the numbers" She concluded the subject by saying, "People like it, people dislike it, it's their own personal thing. We have just made a cinema and people should just go and watch a film for the film and not really judge the actor playing these characters. It's acting for a reason, we are pretending on screen, our personality is different, the actors are different."
