24 years of Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega: Director E Niwas recalls, “It was loosely based on Joel Coen’s Fargo”
After doing serious stuff you suddenly swerved to comedy
After Shool, such an intense plot, and gritty process of making it, I wanted to shift the genre to ease myself as a filmmaker. So, this crazy comedy Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega happened.
It featured an absolutely crazy cast
It was a madcap ensemble: Saif Ali Khan, Fardeen Khan, Aftab Shivdasani, Twinkle Khanna, Sonali Bendre. And above all Aslam Bhai played by Johnny Lever. Till today people come to me quoting those scenes and lines. A laugh riot then and now 24 years later…. Uffff time flies.
The music was quite a hit
It has my favourite music tracks composed by Vishal Bharadwaj. ‘Rama Rama’ track, title track ‘Love Ke Liye Saala Kuch Bhi Karega’, and of course ‘Aslam Bhai’.
Wasn’t it based on a Hollywood film?
It’s loosely based on Joel Coen’s Fargo and a film which my producer Ram Gopal Varma jee produced in the South called Money.
What was it like working with Saif?
Working with Saif was absolutely brilliant. In fact, his comic timing was impeccable.
Did you enjoy the shift from the serious Shool to the comic Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega?
Yes, doing a sitcom is total shift from an intense drama. Here, timing and chemistry and a little bit of exaggeration at times are needed. Overall, it was a light-hearted set with this ensemble.
