Exclusive:Tarun Mansukhani on Unbreakable Bond With Karan Johar & Priyanka Chopra's Desi Girl Legacy_我的网站

A |     Tarun Mansukhani's directorial debut Dostana not only became a milestone in his career but also gave Bollywood one of its most iconic pop-culture moments, Priyanka Chopra as the unforgettable Desi Girl. Backed by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, it also starred John Abraham and Abhishek Bachchan.     The sequel, however, has had a far more troubled journey. Initially planned with Kartik Aaryan, it was stalled after his reported fallout with Karan Johar. Now, it is being reported that the filmmaker will be taking the sequel forward with Lakshya and Vikrant Massey. However, Mansukhani won't be returning as the director.Despite that, Mansukhani insists that nothing has impacted his bond with KJo. Speaking to Filmfare, he shared, "You can never change a bond between two brothers, or a father and son or any of those kinds of relationships. And just because I'm not working there anymore does not mean that we have a fallout in our relationship or any such dramatic thing. We both love each other endlessly. We have had disagreements creatively on various things Kuch Kuch Hota Hai onwards but that's nothing new. We've always been like that. And that's why we can do what we do. We can be honest with each other."                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Tarun Mansukhani (@tarun_mansukhani)                              Talking about Priyanka Chopra's 'Desi Girl' tag, the director said that he knew that the name would stick with the actress even before the film released. "I don't think I ever saw a future like that, the way she has accomplished," he said. "What I always knew, though, was that this tag would stay with her. Right before I played the song for her for the first time, I told her, 'No matter how big you become, no matter what you achieve in your life, you will always be referred to as this for the rest of your career.' And then I put on the song. I remember that moment clearly and she does too. I knew that this song is going to become this identity for this girl for the rest of her career," Mansukhani explained.      He also called Priyanka Chopra one of the finest actors he has worked with. He said, "She is one of the finest I worked with. She is so involved in your film. Priyanka will ask you questions and keep you on your toes. You can't take things for granted, you need to justify the characters, need to understand the back plot and the stories and where they come from, why they're emotional, what they're emotional about. She helps you see your film in a better way than you always did."                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Tarun Mansukhani (@tarun_mansukhani)                         The filmmaker also remarked that there cannot be another 'Desi Girl'. "I don't think there can be another Desi Girl. There is the one and only Priyanka and some magic works just like that. The tag just stays, and I don't think one should even try to place it onto anyone else. That attachment is just too emotional for everyone," he concluded.      Tarun Mansukhani recently directed Housefull 5 and also served as a creative producer on Dining With The Kapoors.Also Read: Housefull 5 Director Tarun Mansukhani Shares How Shah Rukh Khan’s Wisdom Guides His Filmmaking。
