Amitabh Bachchan and Sridevi have worked together in many films. Their pairing was considered a superhit on screen and people also liked their films very much. Both of them had worked together in films like 'Inquilab' and 'Aakhri Raasta'. Now Sridevi was one of the female superstars at that time, so Amitabh thought of making another film 'Khuda Gawah' with her. But Sridevi, for some reason, did not want to work in this film with Amitabh Bachchan. Then after seeing what Amitabh Bachchan did to convince Sridevi, Sridevi's mind changed. Let us know that story.
This story of Amitabh Bachchan and Sridevi has been mentioned in Sridevi: The Eternal Screen Goddess. The songs of this film of Sridevi were choreographed by late choreographer Saroj Khan. Saroj Khan had told this entire story during a conversation quoting from this book.
In fact, in 1991, when Mukul Anand approached Amitabh Bachchan with the script of the film 'Khuda Gawah', he said that Sridevi would be in this film. Before this, Amitabh Bachchan had worked with Sridevi in two films. But he knew that Sridevi would never agree to do this film. Now it was difficult to convince Sridevi. In such a situation, Amitabh Bachchan came up with an idea. Sridevi was shooting a song with Saroj Khan on the sets of the film. At the same time, Amitabh Bachchan sent a truck full of roses there. That truck was emptied near Sridevi.
Sridevi liked this way of convincing Amitabh Bachchan very much. But Sridevi had a condition that she would be seen in a double role in this film. She said that she will be seen in the roles of both mother and daughter. At that time, for the first time, an actress was thinking of appearing in a double role in Amitabh Bachchan's film. Then the makers accepted this condition of Sridevi and finally 'Khuda Gawah' was made and was also liked a lot.
