Salman Khan once talked about his hit film ‘Karan Arjun’, co-starring Shah Rukh Khan. The actor had opened up about how unpredictable box office success of a movie can be. He also shared that sometimes he struggled to understand the response of the audience to his movies. Let’s learn more about it.
Salman Khan shares he did nothing in ‘Karan Arjun’
In an old interview with Lehrein TV, Salman Khan talked about his film ‘Karan Ajrun’, which also starred Shah Rukh Khan as the lead. The actor stated that he did nothing in the film; however, all the credit for its success was given to him. Reflecting on his own career, Salman admitted that there have been movies where he put in tremendous effort, yet they failed to receive appreciation from the audience. He had said, “What I don’t understand is that there are some films where you work extremely hard and they don’t get appreciated at all. And then there are films where you hardly do anything, yet they become huge hits.”At the same time, the actor added that there are films where he has done “nothing at all,” yet they have turned out to be hits. He then mentioned the title ‘Karan Arjun’ as an example. He said, “I didn’t do anything in that film. Everybody else worked hard, and I ended up getting praised for it.”
Salman Khan talks about ‘Tere Naam ‘
In the same interview, Salman Khan had said that the credit for ‘Tere Naam’ success should go to the team members rather than him. Downplaying his own performance in the film, he said, “There was nothing in ‘Tere Naam’. It was simple. One look had bangs, and the other was bald. In the second half, I had one dialogue; otherwise, I barely had any lines.”He went on to add, “It was the director, the screenplay, the writers, the dialogues, and the entire plot of the film that shaped my character and became the reason for the film’s success.”
