Normally actor Arjun Rampal is not the one to throw starry tantrums, but this time around the actor put his foot down and forced Prakash Jha to make certain changes in his role in the movie Chakravyuh.
The actor, who plays a key role in the film, say sources, feared that his character was too dark for his otherwise romantic image. “He asked Jha to incorporate a few changes to add more colour to his character,” says the source.
What’s even more surprising is that Jha agreed to Arjun’s demands. “Jha has been famous for standing by his decisions. But maybe he saw reason in what Arjun pointed out,” adds the source.
Or perhaps, after his experience in Raajneeti, Jha seems to have realised the importance of keeping his actors close to the film and himself. The director had fallen out with Nana Patekar, Ajay Devgn and even had issues with Katrina Kaif during the making of Raajneeti. Ajay Devgn had refused to promote Raajneeti. Jha wouldn’t want a repeat of the same.
