I have done 26 films after Lagaan, but they have not been as difficult. They soon caught on that I was the khabri, so they would stop talking as soon as I would enter the room.ĭuring the night shifts, Aamir would play cards with them from 6 am to noon.

Since I did not play cards, I would be in charge of food in the middle of the night.Īamir had done a Pepsi ad at that time, so we had a fridge full of Pepsi. So we started the Lagaan Playing Cards Club, which would start in the evenings and go on till late at night. They wondered, 'Why are they trying to discipline us? We have been there, done that.'Īamir is such a genius, he called all the actors and told them, 'From tomorrow, I will play cards with you after pack up.' They were theatre actors and teachers from NSD. I told Aamir and Ashu that it did not go down well with other actors. When Ashu told them not to, they were hurt because they were not accustomed to being told something like that. The actors used to play cards during the break, but Aamir and Ashu did not like that.
I was Ashutosh's khabri on the sets of Lagaan. That evening, Ashu called me and told me that I was selected. That day, Aditya Lakhia had also come to meet Aamir.Īfter that, Aditya and I were called for an audition. I still remember standing outside Aamir's house, playing the drum. One day, Ashu told me, 'I am going to Aamir's house for some work. I learnt to play the drums in three months. You will need to learn the drums because Aamir is not sure about casting you.' One day, he told me, 'I think you can play the role of Bagha, the mute temple drummer. We didn't know whether the film would ever get made because Ashu kept meeting people. He used to come home, and he had narrated the script to us. I have been a part of Lagaan as a bouncing board because Ashu ( Ashutosh Gowariker) is a very old friend.
I knew the script of Lagaan five years before Aamir Khan agreed to be a part of it. She would watch us like Bigg Boss in the Bigg Boss house," he tells Patcy N/. "( Aamir's former wife and Lagaan co-producer) Reena Dutta was the one we were all scared of.
