He was the first choice for the role that is now being played by Chandan Roy Sanyal. A source said, "Sanjay had been scouting for a young actor to play a pivotal role in the film. He had zeroed in on Tahir, who was widely appreciated for his negative character in 'Mardaani', and had a word with him. But, things did not work out and he was replaced by Chandan Roy Sanyal." It is heard that Tahir wanted to show the script to the production house that launched him, however, Sanjay was not ready for it. Talking about it, Sanjay said, "He was considered for the role, but we chose Chandan. It has nothing to do with the production house." The spokesperson of Tahir confirmed that he was offered the role and said, "The production house never goes through any script unless an artiste specifically asks it to. Tahir makes his own decisions. He was offered the film, but it never got to the stage of talks.” Now you can enjoy ad-free experience by downloading India’s first Box Office mobile app from here –Android:http://bit.ly/BOCapsuleMobileApp and iOS:bit.ly/BOCapsuleiOSApp |
