Veteran choreographer Farah Khan revealed she never mustered the courage to reprimand Amitabh Bachchan while filming Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
Farah Khan, the acclaimed choreographer and director, recently opened up about her experience working with Amitabh Bachchan on the 2001 blockbuster Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. In a candid interview, she said that despite her senior role in the crew, she never felt comfortable confronting the legendary actor with criticism on set.
Khan explained that Bachchan's towering stature in Indian cinema and his calm professionalism created an atmosphere where direct scolding seemed unnecessary and potentially disruptive. She emphasized that the film’s demanding schedule required a collaborative spirit, and she chose to respect the actor’s approach rather than challenge him openly.
The veteran filmmaker added that her decision was rooted in deep respect for Bachchan’s work ethic and the desire to keep the set harmonious. She noted that maintaining a positive working environment was more important than addressing minor grievances directly, especially with a star of his calibre.
