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.”
During the conversation, Talsania also mentioned that Andaz Apna Apna may not have been commercially successful initially, but later on, it went on to become an iconic film. On being asked if it made money, he shared, “I think it did. Later on it did. I mean, they sold God knows satellite rights or something; they must have made a lot of money.”
Talsania even revealed his son’s admiration for the movie. He stated, “My son has got that film on a disc; I mean. he's got it on his computer. He says, ‘Whenever I get depressed, dad, I watch that film.’ I said, ‘Wow, that's great.’”
