MUMBAI: Sooraj Barjatya’s multi-starrer Hum Saath Saath Hain was a cult classic with many stars like Sonali Bendre, Karisma Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Mahesh Thakur among others. Actor Mahesh recalled the night when Salman got arrested during the black buck shooting case.
Mahesh said that while they were shooting for a song, the cops suddenly came to the set and took everyone to the police station. He said, “Neither me, Mohnish Bahl nor Karisma Kapoor was involved. We three were not involved in the controversy. It was only the five of them.”
He further said, “The women were let go, but I think Salman bhai was there overnight with the cops. Then his family came; Arbaaz and Sohail. Salman was okay the next day. He is a cool dude, he was fine. Even Saif.” He further continued, “People were hyping it because Salman Khan and Saif Ali Khan’s names were associated. But the fact is nothing came out at the end of it. But what I experienced was only that the Jodhpur schedule got cancelled and the entire cast was sent back.”
Mahesh revealed after they came back to the sets, things slowly went back to normal, “It was normal. Everyone knew everyone, it wasn’t that aapne kiya hai questioning. The professionalism was displayed easily.”
He concluded, “When the case happened, the eight extra days worked in the favour of the film because they were all combination dates. So, we used those buffer eight days to shoot, otherwise getting dates from everyone and shooting it would have been very difficult.”
