‘I got insecure’: Anil Kapoor on fighting for screen time during ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha’ shoot

‘I got insecure’: Anil Kapoor on fighting for screen time during ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha’ shoot

Anil Kapoor expressed insecurity during the filming of the hit song "Ek Ladki Ko Dekha" from Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 1994 musical romance, 1942: A Love Story. The actor initially felt that the role should be taken by a younger actor, but he was convinced otherwise by Chopra and Vinod. The film featured Manisha Koirala as the lead, with the song's emphasis on her character making it challenging for Kapoor to secure screen time.

Kapoor acknowledged that even after watching the final product, he understood why Koirala was the focus, as the love story required her to look beautiful.
