‘Baazigar’ is one of the hit films of famous filmmaker Abbas-Mustan’s career. This is the same film with which actress Kajol started climbing the ladder of her success. People liked the pairing of her and Shahrukh Khan in the film. Kajol also got a big film and it went on, but it was not so easy. In an interview by Abbas-Mustan themselves, a big revelation has been made about Kajol’s entry in the film.

The music of the film ‘Baazigar’ was composed by Nadeem-Shravan. And let us tell you, both did not want Kajol to work in this film. Even they asked Abbas-Mustan whether they could replace Kajol with someone else in the film. On this, Abbas-Mustan clearly refused and said that if the film is made, Kajol will be in it. Nadeem-Shravan were also adamant on their point of replacing her. He had also told the director that he would not work if Kajol will be in the film.

Abbas-Mustan said that Nadeem-Shravan did not get along with Kajol and their mother. According to media reports, Nadeem-Shravan had given music in Kajol’s debut film ‘Bekhudi’. After this film, both of them once went to Kajol’s house, where they did not like the behavior of Kajol’s mother Tanuja. Angered by this, Nadeem-Shravan decided that they would never work with Kajol throughout their career.

After Nadeem-Shravan left the film, Abbas-Mustan entrusted the responsibility of composing music to Anu Malik. And we know Anu Malik’s music did wonders. Everyone knows how big a hit the songs of this film were. Anu had created hit songs like ‘Baazigar O Baazigar’, ‘Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhen’, ‘Aye Mere Humsafar’, and ‘Kitabain Bahut Si’. Apart from Kajol and Shahrukh Khan, Shilpa Shetty was also seen in this film.
