Ayan Mukherji did not see the funny side of it and was truly annoyed, sources said. Later on matters worsened when Ranbir applied turmeric paste all over the heroine’s face where he was to just dab the paste on her face.

 Does Filmmaker Sajid Khan Understand The Pulse Of The Indian Audience!

Just one day before the remake of the film Himmatwala released, Sajid Khan made claims that he understands what the public wants. He said that even before he started writing the film, he knew that it would undoubtedly be a big hit. Film critics and Sajid Khan who have had clashes repeatedly in the past stated that he was not interested in even half of the film’s reviews. He refuses to read a single review as he believed that almost ninety percent of the critics do not love cinema.
Sajid Khan seems to be absolutely sure about the response of the audience to the latest film Himmatwala. However the collection reports coming in from the box office indicate that Sajiid may have spoken too early about the film. This brings up the question, whether Sajid Khan or any other filmmaker, really can make claims about understanding what the public wants.
In the past, Sajid has had his share of awards and outstanding films including ‘Housefull’, ‘Housefull 2’ and ‘Heyy Babby’. In the past, better and bigger filmmakers have had a downfall, due to arrogance and overconfidence. Khan had said that Himmatwala is sure to be amongst the top 3 entries in Indian cinema. He said he would change his name if eighty percent of the theatre audience does not clap or whistle when Ajay would make his entry. There are chances that the audience can be misread by the director, and one such testimony is ‘Himmatwala’.
