Sharing how he came on board for Khoon Bhari Maang, Kabir Bedi recalled, “Khoon Bhari Maang is the film I am most known for, it’s the most remembered. The film was a superhit. I was shooting for another series, called Magnum PI, in Hawaii when I received a call from Rakesh Roshan.” The actor reveals how stars that time hesitated to portray villain on-screen and so they rejected the role. However, when he was informed about Rekha being the lead, he immediately agreed to do the flick.
