Sunny Deol’s 27 Years Old Movie
In Bollywood it has often been seen that one actor gets lucky for another actor. Big stars often stumble into movies thinking they won’t work. Some actors not only agree to do it but also make the film a box office hit thanks to their strong performance. One such rejected film also fell into Sunny Deol’s lap, which brightened his luck.
Many films of Sunny Deol were released in the 90s. These films also made Sunny Deol the king of the box office. Not only that, ever since the Sunny movies were released, his dialogues were often spoken by children. Everyone, from elders to children, used to memorize Sunny Deol’s dialogues. One of his films was released 17 years ago and earned more than 4 times its budget at the box office. Although it was not the first choice for this film.
Mithun Chakraborty had rejected the offer.
This movie was nothing if not “stubborn.” This film, released in 1997, was a great box office success. The makers had first offered Mithun Chakraborty for this film and Mamta Kulkarni for the lead actress. But both Mithun and Mamta stubbornly refused to do ‘Ziddi’, after which this film fell into the hands of Sunny Deol and Raveena Tandon.
