Veteran film producer Boney Kapoor was recently in conversation with Bollywood Hungama. During the conversation, he narrated the hilarious yet sweet story of how he convinced Salman Khan to make a cameo appearance in the film.
Recollecting memories of the past, he walked down memory lane and recalled shooting for Judaai in Hyderabad while the Sikandar actor was shooting for Judwaa. Kapoor mentioned they were staying in the same hotel.
One day, they all got together and had drinks. Boney Kapoor shared, “Because of the company I had and because of the mood, he went on pouring drinks and I went on having it. We went to our respective rooms in the morning, at 6 or 7 am. Within a few hours, he went for the shooting. I was full flat the whole day!”
It was a result of this union that Salman agreed to do the film. Kapoor shared, “Sirf Tum happened, as a result. He said, ‘You have (drank for me). So, I owe you’. When we were working on Sirf Tum, I called Salman and asked him whether he’d be interested in doing the role. I informed him that it was just a two-day job. He replied, ‘Yes but only on one condition. I won’t take any money’.”
