The film 'Yalgaar' released in 1992 received a mixed response from the audience. Sanjay Dutt's character in this film was highly praised, while Kabir Bedi, Nagma and many big stars were also a part of this film. The film was directed by Feroz Khan and the special thing was that Mukesh Khanna played the role of Feroz Khan's father in it, while in real life Mukesh was 10 years younger than Feroz.
Mukesh Khanna became the father of an actor 10 years older than him: In this film, Mukesh Khanna played the role of Firoz Khan's father, which became a topic of much discussion in the industry. Mukesh Khanna talked about this role in an interview. In a conversation with Bollywood Thikana, Mukesh said, "There was a scene between me and Firoz Khan at the breakfast table in the film, where he calls me papa. After this scene, people in the industry started making fun of me and it became a laughing point."
Mukesh got angry for not being invited to the premiere: Another incident happened at the premiere of the film, which created some distance between Mukesh Khanna and Feroz Khan. Mukesh says that he was not invited on stage during the premiere of the film, due to which he got angry. After this incident, Mukesh started avoiding Feroz.
Anger with Feroz Khan: Mukesh Khanna said, "We met at Sanjay Khan's daughter's wedding. There Feroz Khan noticed that I was ignoring him, so he himself came to me and greeted me. On this I told him that I am angry with you since the premiere of 'Yalgaar'. Then he apologized to me and said, 'Mukesh, I was very tense, so this thing went out of my mind.' After this I told him that people did not accept me in the role of your father. So Feroz Khan replied, 'I chose you for this role because of your grandfather's image.' I became silent after hearing this."
Mukesh Khanna also told that he had earlier rejected the offer of this film. During the first narration, he had clearly refused to do the film, but when the second narration took place, he agreed to do it.
