Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra recently revealed in his upcoming autobiography that Aamir Khan had included a clause before signing ‘Rang De Basanti’, according to which, he would double his fees if the film is not completed on time.
Spilling the beans on the same, he wrote in the book, Aamir is a visionary and understands everything that is going wrong or right with the creative process. According to the filmmaker, sometimes tough decisions like ‘let’s shoot for 10 more days’ became easy because Aamir backed the need to do it. He added that the actor had no ego about whose scene it was. If the scene belonged to the other boys, he would happily stay in the background because the film’s narrative was the Bible that could not be tampered with. Mehra added that Aamir’s cinematic understanding remains unparalleled in our industry. According to the director, without Aamir’s nod, RDB would have been another dreamer’s script gathering the dust of apathy and inertia.
