The 1994 romantic comedy Andaz Apna Apna has become a cult film over the years due to its popularity. Aamir Khan and Salman Khan’s onscreen bond as Amar and Prem is highly loved by the audience. In an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla, their co-star Tikku Talsania, who portrayed the role of the inspector in the film, reacted to reports of stars not getting along with each other on the sets.
In a recent podcast with Pinkvilla, actor Tikku Talsania talked about his iconic film Andaz Apna Apna. When asked if it was true that actors were not getting along with each other on the sets of the movie, he said, “It never happens, this is all humbug.” Talsania expressed, “Everybody gets along with everybody because everybody wants their work to shine. So if I am against you or.. you’re not going to deliver the line that I want you to.”
When told that it was hard to imagine Aamir Khan and Salman Khan’s Amar and Prem being in sync on screen but not off screen, he added, “Nothing of that kind. I think this must be dug up by the media. They also want to make their stories and run.”
