Fardeen Khan: A Blast from the Past with a Sprinkle of Kareena Kapoor’s Magic!
So, our man Fardeen Khan recently took a trip down memory lane (again) and decided to share a heartfelt note on Instagram. 🥲 Why, you ask? Well, it’s been 20 years since Govind Nihalani’s political action-drama Dev hit the screens. And guess what? Fardeen revealed that it was none other than the Begum of Bollywood, Kareena Kapoor, who recommended him for the film. Aww, isn’t that sweet? 💖
But wait, there’s more! Fardeen got all sentimental about working with the legendary Amitabh Bachchan and the late, great Om Puri. He shared a reel featuring his character, Farhan Ali, delivering some intense dialogues amidst gunshots and blasts. Quite the throwback, huh?
Govind Nihalani: The Maestro of Storytelling
In his post, Fardeen went on and on about how grateful he was to Kareena for the recommendation. He waxed lyrical about Govind Nihalani’s meticulous direction and powerful storytelling. Apparently, getting signed for a film with legends like Amitabh Bachchan and Om Puri was a “huge endorsement” for our man Fardeen. Well, no kidding! 🙄
Idolizing Amitabh Bachchan
Fardeen didn’t stop there. He further gushed about how this role gave him the opportunity to work on something “relevant and meaningful” – a rarity back in the day, according to him. But the cherry on the cake was sharing the screen with Amitabh Bachchan, someone he has idolized forever. Fardeen described it as a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” and one of the highlights of his career. I mean, who wouldn’t be starstruck by Big B, right? 🌟
Throwback to Fardeen-Kareena Duo
For those who need a refresher, Fardeen and Kareena have shared the screen in three films: Khushi, Dev, and Fida. Ah, the early 2000s, when life was simpler, and Fardeen’s eyebrows were still figuring out their shape. 😆
Fardeen’s Comeback: The Return of the Khan
After disappearing from the limelight for almost 14 years, Fardeen made his grand comeback in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Heeramandi. He played Nawab Wali Bin Zayed-Al Mohammed, rubbing shoulders with the likes of Manisha Koirala, Sonakshi Sinha, and Aditi Rao Hydari. Quite the ensemble cast, I must say!
But wait, there’s more! Fardeen will next be seen in Visfot, produced by Sanjay Gupta, and Mudassar Aziz’s Khel Khel Mein, featuring Akshay Kumar, Taapsee Pannu, Vaani Kapoor, and others. Looks like our man is back with a bang! 💥
Nisha’s Nutshell:
Moral of the Story: In Bollywood, it’s not just about talent; it’s also about who you know and who can put in a good word for you. So, always be nice to your co-stars, you never know when you might need a recommendation! 😉
