Jurm (1987): ‘Compromises never work. Jurm was a nightmare’ Vinod Khanna had returned to India after a long exile and wanted to come back. Being old friends, he approached Mahesh. We thought it would be fun working together after so many years. It wasn’t. The man who went to America wasn’t the same man who returned. The new Vinod was mysterious and unpredictable. He cancelled dates at random. I was perpetually depressed during the making of Jurm. When Vinod reported for work, I was depressed that he would run away. And when he didn’t, I was depressed that he might never turn up. Jurm was a nightmare! The madness continued for two years. I was neck-deep in debts and wondered if becoming a producer was a mistake. One evening just to get out of my depression, I went for a party. At the party I met Gulshan Kumar of ‘Super Cassettes’. During a casual conversation, Gulshan mentioned that he was getting into production too. He asked me if I was willing to join hands. I was taking another chance but I agreed. Aashiqui (1990): ‘It’s the subject and not the star that clicks’ Looking back, Vinod’s indiscipline proved a blessing in disguise. If Jurm hadn’t been delayed indefinitely, I would have never started another film. I would have continued to play safe all through my career. But as they say, destiny knows its journey... All the problems caused by Jurm were wiped away by Aashiqui. The film completed a golden jubilee and its music had a big contribution to the success. For this, the credit ought to be given to Gulshanji. When we signed the contract, his only condition was that the subject should be musical. This was understandable. We chose a love story, signed newcomers and a fresh composer team Nadeem-Shravan. Aashiqui was a blossoming of many careers the music directors’, ‘Super Cassettes’, Anu Agarwal, Rahul Roy’s and mine. The film taught me my first lesson as a producer. Compromises never work. Jurm bombed because it was a compromise. It was a proposal, a comeback vehicle for Vinod Khanna. The second lesson as a producer being, that it’s the subject and not the star that clicks. Working with newcomers has many advantages. You don’t have to turn your project topsy-turvy to accommodate names. Two, they are controllable. The film was released during Diwali. On the same day, my daughter Sakshi was born. True to the tradition of Lakshmi bringing you good luck, Aashiqui was a super-duper hit.
