Bollywood star Salman Khan had a big fight with Ready director Anees Bazmee on the sets in Bangkok. The confrontation got so ugly that Anees abandoned the shoot midway and flew back to Mumbai, says a media report. Presently, choreographer Raju Khan is calling the shots on location, says the report.
The report quotes a source: “There was a huge argument between Salman and Anees. Salman had issues with Anees's close associate Rajat Rawail, who is the co-producer of Ready. "Anees tried to protect Rajat and this triggered an ugly fight, during which many of their other differences came up.”
Bazmee, it seems, left while Rajat switched sides and made up with Salman. The report says, it will now be hard for producer Bhushan Kumar to get the director on board again. Sallu is not famous for forgiveness. The film, far from over, is now in jeopardy. Bhushan confirmed the director was not returning to Bangkok. “Why should Bazmee go back? Ek gaana hi toh shoot karna hai. Raju Khan is calling the shots.
"I am sure Anees will shoot the scenes that remain. We shall shoot those in Mumbai later, over a period of four days,” he said. Bazmee, who is doing post-production for his Thank You, did not attribute his return to a brawl. “We have finished all the action sequences and talkie portions of the film. We had a meeting about my departure and everything was planned before I left,” he said.
He added, “I never do two films at the same time. This time, the dates clashed and led to the confusion. I am extremely proud of my work in Ready. Says Bazmee: "There are no problems between Salman and me. I came back to Mumbai simply because I had to finish the mixing of Thank You.”
