Sanam Teri Kasam directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru have been basking in the success of the re-release of the film at the box office. The Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane starrer turned out to be the highest grossing re-release and redeemed its unsuccessful run back in 2016. However, did you know that initially very few people were ready to back the project because of it starring new faces? It was then that music composer-singer Himesh Reshammiya showed faith in the makers and provided music for the film. Not only this but he also gave the title for the romantic movie.
In an exclusive interview with Koimoi, Sanam Teri Kasam directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru recalled the struggle they faced after casting Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane in the film and how it was Himesh Reshammiya who was a solid pillar of support in those tough times. On this Vinay Said, “Iske Pehle Hum Superstar Filmein Banate They, Salman Sir Ke Saath, Sunny Deol Sir Ke Saath, Kangana Ke Saath. When we wrote this film which we believed was timeless, Humne Kahan Ki Yeh Humko Naya Ladka Aur Nayi Ladki Ke Saath Hi Karna Hai.”
Adding further, Vinay Sapru told us, “Yeh Ladki Ka Jo Innocence Level Hai, Jo Iske Sanskar Hai, Iske Liye Hume Koi Image Nahi Chahiye Jo Logo Ke Dimag Mein Set Ho. Humne Soch Liya Ki Hume New Boy And New Girl Chahiye, Jiss Din Se Humne Yeh Socha, Uss Din Se Humari Mushkile Shuru Ho Gayi.” He recalled how nobody was ready to finance the film since they did not wish to invest on new faces.
