The director of the film ‘Karan Arjun’, Rakesh Roshan, has shared some stories about the movie. He said that the lead actors, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, treated the filming process like a vacation. Rakesh Roshan was upset because the film was not being shot on schedule. Additionally, the two actors would often fire crackers outside their hotel room at night.
Rakesh Roshan stated that both actors were young at the time and had a lot of fun on set. He would get angry, but controlled his emotions, as he did not want to scold them. Sometimes, their laughter and joking would go overboard, and Rakesh Roshan had to remind them to behave. He tried to convince them to focus on the film, acting like a father figure to them.
When asked about the pranks the actors would play, Rakesh Roshan mentioned that they would fire crackers outside his house at night, blowing up bottles. When he asked them to stop, they would say they were not disturbing him. In a recent documentary, ‘The Roshans’, Rakesh Roshan shared that Salman and Shah Rukh gave him a hard time on the set of ‘Karan Arjun’. Shah Rukh Khan acknowledged this and said that he had a lot of fun on set during the filming of ‘Karan Arjun’.
Shah Rukh Khan later apologized to Rakesh Roshan for his behavior. He said that Rakesh Roshan’s wife, Pinky, scolded him, telling him that he was harassing Rakesh and that she did not expect such behavior from him. The film ‘Karan Arjun’ was released in 1995 and starred Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Mamta Kulkarni in lead roles, with Rakesh Roshan as the producer.
