Did You Know? (4)

Sohail Khan was supposed to make his directorial debut in 1994 with the movie Ram, starring Salman Khan, Pooja Bhatt, and Sonali Bendre. However, after an argument between Sohail and the producer of the movie, Mansoor Siddiqui, the movie was shelved even though it was 40% completed.

Sohail Khan and actress Pooja Bhatt were dating each other roughly around 1994-1995, however, things did not work out for them and they split soon after.

After having directed Hello Brother, Sohail Khan was very confident that the movie would do well and registered the title 'Hello Daddy' as its sequel. However, upon its release, Hello Brother bombed and the idea of the sequel was shelved.

Akshay Kumar was the initial choice to play Salman Khan's brother in Tubelight. However, Kabir Khan decided against it and cast Sohail Khan since he thought that it would be easier for the real-life brothers to create that kind of camaraderie on screen.

Personal Quotes (4)

"I was not getting good work as an actor and I was not inclined to act just for the sake of it. In the past couple of films I was just working and I did not why and wondered where am I going? I told my family, let me direct and produce films."

" Writing gives clarity. When a writer and director work together at the script level, all discussion are done on paper. "

" I admire Rajkumar Hirani, who is the most commendable director for me. That is because he is a real perfectionist and works keenly on his scripts. "

" I genuinely believe that the audience is the right judge. And it is our responsibility, as filmmakers, to please them. "
