At the end of the narration, Dharamji said you should become an actor, Tinnu.I started laughing, but he was serious.Then Iqbal got an idea and said, why don't you approach Amitabh for Kaalia?Narrating that script to Amitabh took me a year.He said okay, but you will have to wait.He said he could not give me more than two hours a day for a year.That's how Kaalia started. was doing a bit of action while narrating it and Dharmendra was watching me. There is a scene where Kaalia gets violent. I said I would will wait till he finished.He said, no, carry on.It was very odd for me. I was taken to Dharmendra for a narration.I am a very ferocious narrator I do some action while narrating.Dharmendra was getting a massage done. producer named Iqbal Singh, who was very close to Dharmendra, asked me if I had a story for Dharmendra.I said yes.I had Kaalia. While I was making Duniya Meri Jeb Mein, I had a 10 month-gap because Shashi and Rishi were busy, so I utilised that time to get Kaalia ready.I didn't have much money then. So we dropped the idea of going to Amitabh Rishi insisted we take his uncle Shashi Kapoor (instead of Amitabh).The film took five years to get made. ![]() But the next day, Rishi said he could not work in our film.My brother was making the film because Rishi said he would work for free. ![]() I was trying to get a break then, and I told my brother what Amit said.When Rishi heard that, he was jumping with joy that he would be working with Amitabh Bachchan.But at a party at the Sun-n-Sand hotel, Cameraman Sudarshan Nag told Rishi that he would be an idiot to say yes to the script, as Amitabh would steal every scene. If the script is good, we will work together. When I met Amitabh, he was packing to go to Bangalore for Sholay.He said, let me get back, then I will hear the script. Rishi asked who the other brother would be, and Bittu said we are planning to take Amitabh. Rishi and my brother were very close, so he told him, why don't you ask Tinnu to direct the film.So I narrated the script of Duniya Meri Jeb Mein to Rishi and he loved it. Rishi Kapoor's Bobby had released and he had become big. He had invited me for that premiere because he knew I was in town, and he met me warmly.Then we lost touch because Amit had become very busy as an actor while I was still assisting Mr Satyajit Ray.A few years later, my brother Bittu and his friend got together to make a film. Tinnu Anand stated " I met Amit in Calcutta for the premiere of Sanjog, which did not do very well. ![]()
