While appearing on a popular reality show, 'Sa Re Ga Ma Pa', Bollywood superstar revealed some surprising details about his hit 2003 movie, Tere Naam.?
"Not many people know, but there's a fascinating story behind my look in 'Tere Naam'. I was shooting for another film when the producer of 'Tere Naam' and a very dear friend of mine, Sunil Manchanda, came up to me and said that I'll have to go bald to get into my character."?
"I was not sure because I was already doing a film at that time, and I still remember I was down with fever one day, and the director of the other movie was pestering me to attend the shoot."?
"I impulsively went to the washroom and shaved my hair out of irritation. The next day, I called up Sunil Ji and said that I had shaved my hair and was willing to sign up for 'Tere Naam'. Everyone was actually against me doing this film, but for some reason, I wanted to do it, and irrespective of everyone's disagreement, I went on to take up the role of 'Radhe Mohan'."
Sharing an interesting detail about his friend Himesh, Salman added that he had composed 13 songs for the film, but he couldn't take all of them.Salman said,
"I remember Himesh and I were in Galaxy discussing the film, and when he heard the whole plot, he immediately came up with a song. That was the 'Tere Naam' title track, and I locked it immediately. You won't believe it, he instantly gave me four or five songs on the spot, and we couldn't reject any of them; they were so good."?
"This guy came up with 13 songs, none of which could be rejected. But of course, we had to select only seven because the film demanded only that much. The songs were so relatable that we wouldn't even hear it till the end and lock it just by hearing the first 'mukhra'. I truly believe the kind of depth this story had, only Himesh's songs could do justice to the narrative."?
On the work front, Aayush Sharma will be sharing the screen space with his brother-in-law, Salman Khan, in their newly released film 'Antim: The Final Truth.'
