The former child actor, Master Raju, who became famous as a child star, revealed in an interview with Siddharth Kannan all of Bollywood’s hidden, confidential information and disclosed details of an explosive fight that occurred during a movie shoot between Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, and Rajesh Khanna. The actor who claimed to have more films than Bachchan during his most successful period explained that the quarrel between them destroyed the entire film project, as the production team lost the ability to continue working on it after the incident. The way he reveals the information shows that individuals with authority in the industry can use their power to destroy entire projects, leading to the downfall of those who worked on them.
Master Raju explained that his friendship with Salman Khan ended because he wanted to discuss the events that continue to affect the actor’s reputation as a public figure, including his physical fights with journalists and his violent behaviour at his former girlfriend’s home. He explained why the Govinda-Karisma Kapoor partnership ended because of personality conflicts that sparked power struggles, which the industry has refused to acknowledge.
What Master Raju said about Salman Khan
The speaker shows how his friendship with Salman Khan has evolved as Salman’s fame has risen. The speaker explains their former relationship, which included shared bathing practices and sleeping at each other’s homes, yet their connection has changed since Salman achieved celebrity status. The speaker limits his visits to Salman’s work and home to avoid being perceived as a “chamcha” (sycophant or hanger-on), although they used to spend time together constantly in the past. The two friends now meet less frequently because of practical circumstances: the speaker works on daily TV shows that require him to work 12-14 hours each day, and his meetings with Salman have become a separate task he must complete. The speaker shows that Salman treats him kindly during their meetings by tracing the transformation of their relationship: it shifts from using the name “Salman” to the formal address “bhai aap,” while their friendship still maintains its fundamental respect and warmth.
