Actor Anupam Kher is generally known for his amiable and genial nature. But there was a surprise in store for director Kaushik Roy on the sets of Apna Asmaan. The normally genial Kher lost it for some time.
The actor is playing the role of Dr Satya, an Indian scientist settled in Mexico. On that eventful day, Kher was given a white linen suit to wear along with a polka dotted bow tie. The bow tie did. It had nothing to do with the polka dots on it. But Kher refused to wear the bow tie. There was an initial tussle between the director and the actor with neither wanting to concede the point. The actor, however, had a valid point to make. His point being that a French beard and a bow tie would make him look like a caricature of his previous negative roles played in different films. The director finally relented and made him wear a silk tie instead. So it ended happily as a tie between them with the film emerging as a winner!
