Shah Rukh Khan’s 1993 film Darr marked a significant chapter in his career. The superstar played a negative role in this Yash Chopra-directed romance thriller. Juhi Chawla and Sunny Deol were also a part of the cast. But do you know that it was Aamir Khan who wanted to play the titular character?
Aamir Khan revealed that it was Yash Chopra who fired him from Darr.
The actor, in a conversation with Zoom, revealed, “I didn’t say no to Darr. I said yes, but I was fired from the film because I wanted a joint narration. There were two actors, and I’ve this principle that if there are two actors, then the director should give a joint narration.”
He added, “Yash ji did not want to do that, so he fired me. Everyone has their own way of working. I think when two people are working together, they should listen to the narration together, so we can work together as a team. They should all listen to the film together. That didn’t happen in Darr, so I was fired. I was removed from Darr.”
Aamir Khan said that he also wanted a joint narration for his 1994 film Andaz Apna Apna. The 60-year-old shared screen space with Salman Khan in this Rajkumar Santoshi directorial.
