Hema Malini Ran Away From Set: Hema Malini is celebrating her birthday today. On this occasion, we are telling a special incident related to the actress when Hema Malini silently disappeared from the set after hearing a demand from an actor. The story is from the time when the casting of the film ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’, released in 1978, was taking place.
People liked the chemistry of Shashi Kapoor and Zeenat Aman in the film ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’ made under the direction of Raj Kapoor. But do you know that these two stars were not Raj Kapoor’s first choice for this film. When Raj Kapoor thought of making the film ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’, he thought of Rajesh Khanna as the lead actor and the first name that came to his mind as an actress was Hema Malini.
Dream Girl was surprised to hear about the character and costume
Raj Kapoor sent an offer to Hema Malini for the film and called her for the screen test the very next day. But Raj Kapoor said something to her that Hema left the film without saying anything. When Hema Malini went to the set for the screen test, Raj Kapoor told her about the film’s character Rupa. But when the actor gave her details about the costume, Hema Malini was surprised.
Hema Malini was not ready to play Rupa in the film
Actually, Rupa’s character in ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’ was a bit open according to that era. In such a situation, Hema Malini did not want to do this role but she also did not want to directly say no to Raj Kapoor. Hema Malina did not say anything to Raj Kapoor and the actor asked her to come wearing the costume of Rupa’s role.
Hema Malini had disappeared from the dressing room
Hema Malini went to the dressing room on the request of the director but did not wear the costume. She quietly left the studio without telling anyone. Here Raj Kapoor kept waiting for him. When Hema did not come after a long time, they understood that the actress was not ready for this role.
