Veteran Actor Rajat Bedi Reflects on Missed Opportunity in Bollywood Blockbuster

In 2023, veteran actor Rajat Bedi, who played the suave antagonist in the Bollywood sci-fi film 'Koi Mil Gaya', has opened up about a missed opportunity that still haunts him years later. Bedi reveals that during the filming, he failed to make the most of a scene that was meant to be his moment to shine opposite Hrithik Roshan's character.

The actor, who has since moved to Canada and ventured into real estate, admits that he lacked the maturity as an actor at the time. Director Rakesh Roshan had suggested several changes to the scene, which Bedi approved, but later told him, "Rajat, you know, that scene was yours? You had to eat Duggu (Hrithik Roshan) up in that scene! But you didn't do that." Bedi says he was heartbroken by this feedback, as he didn't fully grasp its significance then.
