Shaan laughed, “Yes, I was there with a saxophone!" Farah added with a smile, “And I was a junior dancer there."Behind the scenesFarah explained, “I actually joined as an assistant director. Then, when they ran short of dancers, I started helping with choreography — and whenever a dancer didn’t show up, they’d put me in front of the camera. There’s even a scene where Deepak Tijori kisses my cheek — the girl who was supposed to do it refused, so they sent me instead!"Shaan’s brief roleShaan recalled, “I worked on the film for four days but was barely visible in the final cut. After shooting for four long days, I appeared only in a passing shot in a medley of songs." Farah laughed and added, “I think it was a Jatin song — I was choreographing it. The makers were so broke that they even threw Jatin into the song!"The chat turned even more nostalgic when Shaan revealed his pay for the film. “I got Rs 150 per day for four days, while the others received Rs 75," he said. Farah, amused, gasped, “You got paid? I was never paid!"
