TBT: Salman Khan's chaotic energy during the making of Chaand ka Tukdaa: Sridevi vexed!

TBT: Salman Khan's chaotic energy during the making of Chaand ka Tukdaa! 

It's so rare that Sridevi would speak out but for someone as painstakingly professional as her, to see an unprofessional co-star who didn't turn up on set on time, didn't know his lines, and that too being her lead... 

Sridevi spilled the tea during a rare MOVIE magazine interview--and that too on a cover story! To confirm her statements, in the same issue, the film's writer, lyricist, producer and director, Saawan Kumar Tak, spoke out against Salman Khan for his wayward ways, mismanagement of dates and timing. 

In due course, Salman recognised his error of ways, and went on to work with Saawan Kumar Tak in a few following films (all flops btw!), but didn't charge the senior producer his usual, astronomical fees. Sridevi and Salman Khan maintained a friendship till the very end. Khan went on to state on TV shows that she was his favourite co-star of ALL time. 

The curse of overnight fame and its heady implications.
