Mithun Chakraborty and Naseeruddin Shah
An array of offerings brought the two powerhouses, Mithun Chakraborty and Naseeruddin Shah, together on screen, but the professional rivalry, it was suggested, caused havoc on their relationship. Approached to join forces again after 34 years for The Tashkent Files, it took a bit of cajoling to get one of them on board.
Director Vivek Agnihotri tells mid-day, "Naseer came on board immediately, but Mithun took time. But, they loved working with each other, and we realised that their fight was media-created. They both told me that they had problems [with each other], but, they were big stars in their prime, and are more mature now."
