Apart from Naseeruddin Shah, Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro featured an ensemble of talented actors including Ravi Biswani, Om Puri, Satish Kaushik, Pankaj Kapur, Neena Gupta, Satish Shah, and Bhakti Bharve among others.
After making his dierctorial debut with the 2006 drama Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota, Naseeruddin Shah has donned the hat of a director for the second time in his career recently after 17 years for the short film Man Woman, Man Woman. While promoting the same, Shah revealed in a recent interview that he initially didn't like working on the cult classic Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro.
Talking about the 1983 black comedy film directed by Kundan Shah, the 73-year-old actor told IANS, "It’s a film that I deeply love now but didn’t like while I was working on it because I was coming from a very purist point of view while working on it.”
He continued, “It's not like that the process of working on the film was very harsh. I was used to working on films which demanded a lot from me or which involved a very harsh working environment like 'Paar' and 'Manthan'. It was mainly because I was into method acting and all that stuff back in those days because I was a fresh graduate from film school, it was merely 5-6 years that I graduated from film school."
"I wanted logic, the real feeling and everything that is required to become a character. But then I later realised that my director Kundan Shah was right about the film, he knew what he was making and exactly what he wanted from his actors,” he said.
Apart from Naseeruddin, Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro featured an ensemble of talented actors including Ravi Biswani, Om Puri, Satish Kaushik, Pankaj Kapur, Neena Gupta, Satish Shah, and Bhakti Bharve among others. The film was a dark satire on the corruption in politics, media, and bureaucracy in India, and has achieved a cult status over the years.
