Reema Kagti Once Blasted Aamir Khan Over Talaash Lateness
Aamir Khan once arrived very late for a night shoot of Talaash.
He had gone to Sachin Tendulkar’s retirement party.
Aamir had asked Reema Kagti if he could be one hour late.
The event lasted longer than expected, so he arrived four or five hours late.
Reema was very angry and questioned his professionalism.
Aamir said she still reminds him about it.
Reema had also scolded him years earlier while working on Lagaan.
She was known for making sure everyone, even famous actors, arrived on time.
Aamir Khan recalled that Reema Kagti scolded him for arriving four or five hours late to a Talaash night shoot.
Khan had attended Sachin Tendulkar’s retirement party after asking Kagti to allow him to arrive an hour late.
Khan said Kagti challenged his professionalism and has continued reminding him about the lapse.
Kagti had earlier scolded Khan on Lagaan for eating breakfast slowly and disrupting the production schedule.
Kagti was also known for rushing Amitabh Bachchan during Lakshya, prompting him to jokingly call her “Gurkha.”
