When Mohit Suri reached out to Mahesh Bhatt for advice
Mohit Suri joined CNN-News18 for a Town Hall where he discussed love, loss and of course, Saiyaara. During his session, he recalled how he called his uncle, Mahesh Bhatt, for advice when he was confused about a certain scene in the film.
Mohit Suri said, “At 7 in the morning the next day, I was going to shoot the scene. I sent a missed call to Bhatt saab. He was up at 4 in the morning, and he called me up. I said, ‘I am feeling a little unsure, they’re very nice people. I think I’m being a little too dramatic.’ He has no idea about my script.”
“All I’ve told him is the scene where the son gets violent with his father, he’s an alcoholic. Bhatt saab just cut me off. He said a couple of swear words to me; that’s him. I didn’t realise that my profile picture was of my son’s hand in my hand. He just said that the way you’re holding your son’s hand in a close-up, the kind of emotion you feel towards your son, no matter how, go shoot this scene, it’s never going to have a wrong emotional connect,” Mohit recalled.
Mohit Suri said that Mahesh Bhatt mentioned, “The son-father bond is too pure for you. How can the same person who has a DP like this even ask me this question? Go shoot it the way you want.” Mohit Suri listened paid heed to this advice and it turned out to be one of the scenes that Aditya Chopra loved most.
Saiyaara released on July 18.
