Published on May 18, 2001, Ek Rishta: The Bond Relationship It was the last film to feature a star-studded cast, including Amitabh Bachchan, Rakhi Gulzar, Akshay Kumar, Karisma Kapoor, Mohnish Behl, and Juhi Chawla. This film marked the end of the era of ensemble casts. Sunil Darshan’s reputation in the film industry, which he had been a part of since 1988, allowed him to acquire this impressive cast. Sunil maintained a lengthy relationship with Akshay and Karisma. He appeared in Animal by Sunil. The 1999 release of the film that catapulted Akshay into the A-list.
Rakhee Gulzar was surprisingly the most difficult actor to convince to join the cast. She protested, “What would I do in a film with half the film industry?” He eventually gave in and thoroughly appreciated the experience.
Afraid, Akshay Kumar acted alongside Mr. Bachchan for the first time in A relationship. What would it be like to appear before the camera with the thespian god? Akshay continued asking. I told him that he must inquire of God. The positive aspect of hero-worship was that Akshay played a son in the film who adores his father so much that he cannot even make eye contact with him. Since Akshay felt similarly about ‘Bhagwaan,’ it was simple for him to perform the sequences. “Imagine if we had to portray a father-son duo as close as Shashi Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor.” Occasionally, Akshay expresses disbelief with a voice filled with terror.
Juhi Chawla was hesitant to portray the daughter of Amitabh Bachchan and Rakhi Gulzar. No, neither presented a concern for him. After portraying his leading lady in David Dhawan’s film, she had to play Akshay Kumar’s sister in order to portray her child. Juhi did not want to be cast as the protagonist’s tolerant sibling. Also, while Akshay was Karishma’s leading man, Mohnish Behl was Juhi’s, although this should not have been a problem. Tabu portrayed Mohnish’s wife in the film We are together by Sooraj Barjatya. Eventually, Juhi was persuaded to portray the role of A relationship, although she never played the role of a sister again.
Sunil Darshan had a difficult time producing this star-studded family drama. During the film’s 25th anniversary celebrations, Sunil took me aside and informed me that there are elements within the film industry attempting to damage the film. Sunil had stated, “Many Bombay merchants were eager to write off the film from day one.” Since I cast Mr. Bachchan as the father of Akshay Kumar, there has been a powerful lobby operating against me. I don’t know what this lobby has against me, a relationship. Perhaps they disliked my forthrightness. In addition, there has been a great deal of industry backlash against Akshay’s casting in all of my brother’s and my films.”
Now Sunil reflects A partnership Experience with a great deal of affection. A relationship is not merely a film. They leave behind their family, friends, colleagues, opportunities, and footprints. This is not just the narrative of my life, but the story of the majority of lives.
