Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra's Parinda is an iconic crime drama Bollywood has ever produced. The Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, and Nana Patekar-starrer is a hard-hitting, violent film that set a benchmark in this genre. The journey of this film is even more entertaining than the film. Parinda proved to be a milestone in Vidhu and Jackie's careers. Before this film, Vidhu was not getting a distributor for his previous mystery drama Khamosh. Jackie was not considered to be a 'wooden actor'. Parinda gave a new boost to their dwindling professional lives.
For his performance as a loner, elder brother Kishen, Jackie won the Best Actor Filmfare award. However, it's interesting to know that he wasn't the first choice for the role. Vidhu Vinod Chopra made a shocking revelation at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), and revealed that Kishen was supposed to be played by the leading star of his previous film, Khamosh- Naseeruddin Shah.
Why did Naseeruddin Shah reject Parinda?
At IFFI, Vidhu revealed that when he was discussing Parinda with Naseer, the actor was accompanied by his well-wisher. After narrating the film to Shah, the well wishes asked Vidhu, why his character Kishen doesn't have a female lead. Vidhu replied that since he's a loner, he won't be having a lady luck with him. Then the well-wisher further questioned why Anil Kapoor's character Karan has a heroine? This irked Vidhu, but he tackled him well. At last, the person accompanying Shah suggested that he should have a female lead, and then Vidhu lost it. Vidhu slammed Naseer's well-wisher saying, "You don't anything about cinema, you're bullsh**t." This left Naseeruddin angry and he argued with Vidhu saying that he couldn't insult his well-wisher. Their argument ended with Naseerddin announcing his exit from the project and he said that Jackie won't be able to justify the role. Vidhu took this as a challenge and decided to give him the role of Kishen. Rest is history. IFFI 2024 is happening in Goa. The film festival will take place from November 20 to 28.
