When Kader Khan put a condition in front of Dilip Kumar to show the play: Superstar Dilip Kumar gave a break to many actors in the film industry and Kader Khan was one of them. Kader Khan actually played and wrote before making his film debut. At the same time, due to the circumstances at home, he had to start working as a professor at a university. Hearing about a play in those days, Dilip Kumar called him. This was mentioned by Kader Khan himself during an interview.
Kader Khan had said: ‘The laborer came up to me and said: a call has come for you in the office, at that time I was teaching in the class. When I went there, everyone stayed like a bomb had been dropped. I picked up the phone, got a voice, bro, this is Yusuf Khan speaking. I said, who Yusuf Khan? He said that everyone in the film industry knows me by the name of Dilip Kumar. Hearing this, the phone fell out of my hands.
Furthermore, Kader Khan had said: ‘Dilip sahab told me, I have heard a lot of praise for one of your dramas. I’d like to see that drama of yours. Kader Khan was very happy to hear this, but he had put 2 conditions in front of Dilip Kumar. First, you will come ahead of time to see the drama and second, you will see the complete play. The superstar agreed to both of his terms. ‘ Kader Khan had also said that ‘Dilip sahib came, he saw all the drama. His eyes turned red as he looked at the artwork. He got on stage and said: I can’t do anything big right now, but Kader Khan will work on my next two films, ‘Sagina Mahto’ and ‘Bairag’. From here began Kader Khan’s journey in Hindi cinema.
