In a nostalgic trip down memory lane, veteran actor Ashok Saraf has opened up about his time on the sets of the iconic 1995 Bollywood film Karan Arjun. Directed by Rakesh Roshan, the movie starred Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in the lead roles, along with Kajol, Mamta Kulkarni, and Johny Lever.
Saraf, who played a supporting role in the film, shared several humorous anecdotes about the behind-the-scenes camaraderie on set. He revealed that he, Salman Khan, and Johny Lever would often get into mischief that ended up "troubling" director Rakesh Roshan. Saraf admitted that even though he tried to keep his distance, the trio's antics were hard to avoid.
At one point, Roshan's wife Pinkie scolded Saraf, saying, "You are troubling Guddu (Rakesh) a lot. I didn't expect it from you." Saraf tried to defend himself, saying, "I didn't do anything. It's all his (Salman's) doing." But the veteran actor acknowledged that the three of them, as "two young kids," were essentially "troubling a father figure."
Saraf's candid revelations offer fans a rare glimpse into the off-camera camaraderie and hijinks that took place during the making of one of Bollywood's most beloved films of the 90s. Karan Arjun not only became a box office hit but also cemented the iconic pairing of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.
