Farhan Akhtar has done something which no one has even dared to think of. Barely one film old, this new breed director crossed the rubicon and insulted Big B. Farhan is shooting for Lakshya on the high altitudes and fainted himself on the sets due to altitude problem. Amitabh Bachchan almost walked out of the film due to similar problem but later, he decided to stay put with the project.
The fiasco happened when Amitabh Bachchan was giving a shot and in the midst of the scene, he felt he was not getting his lines properly, so he said, "Cut... cut... cut..." and asked for another take. That was enough for the authoritative director in Farhan to wake up. He walked up to Bachchan and said, "The only person who has the right to say cut on this set is me and no one else." Every one was shell shocked as the young kid took up the humble veteran in front of the whole unit.
He didn't stop at that and advised Big B to come at the sets a few hours early and rehearse his lines before hand. The old guy was so furious that he decided to call it quits. It was only after the timely intervention of a mutual political friend, he decided to go on with the project. No prizes for guessing that the young gun had to apologise to Amitabh in the end.
