Bollywood filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, who directed the masterpiece Jab We Met, recalled the time he sacked Bobby Deol from the film, who was essentially trying to back him at the time. Imtiaz shed light on what happened after Bobby, in a recent interview, revealed he was hurt by their fallout.
Speaking to The Lallantop, Imtiaz recalled, “We planned to make Jab We Met with Bobby Deol. We commenced the movie, but Bobby was getting offers from big directors. So he kept waiting, and said, ‘We will do after this, we will do after that. There came a time when I felt, `Yeh theek nahi lag raha` (This doesn`t seem right).”
