Producer, director, show anchor and actor Karan Johar has always given the fans an insight into the lives of their favourite celebrities from Deepika Padukone – Ranveer Singh’s epic unseen wedding video reveal, Alia Bhatt – Kareena Kapoor Khan talking about Raha, Sunny Deol – Bobby Deol talking about their comebacks and Sara Ali Khan – Ananya Panday discussing about their best friend Orry.
This week, Saif Ali Khan will grace the couch with his mother, veteran actress Sharmila Tagore. During the chat, he revealed that Yash Chopra stood like a rock through his tough years and saved him and his career quite literally. Talking about the same, Saif Ali Khan said, “So there were a couple of offers and kind of dried up, Rahul Rawail told me that, this is it. Nobody’s going to work with you. And he was a bit sadistic, I must say, because he kind of enjoyed that. And I thought, okay, and they did dry up. And then Yash Chopra ji called me over and he went over and he said, I’ve heard you’re very naughty, and you and you gotta give me your word. And he was casting Parampara with a lot of people in the movie.”
“There was Aamir, Raveena, Neelam, Vinod Khanna,” added Karan. To this, Saif said, “Sunil Dutt too and I knew that there was a huge multi-starrer, and he wanted this role, he wasn’t finding someone. And he met me and he said, You promised to be good. That was pretty much it. And I said, Of course, I promise you I will be. And he said, Okay, you’re in the movie. And overnight, the office started. And you know how it is. If Yash Chopra is casting, then everyone comes. The same people who had said, “No, we’re not interested, were very interested now. So he saved me.”
