Pakistani actor Javed Sheikh did not have the best experience shooting with actor Emraan Hashmi on the sets of their film Jannat. In a YouTube video by Aaj Entertainment, Javed appeared for a Ramadan Transmission with Omer Shahzad and Arsala, where he opened up about Emraan’s ‘rude’ behaviour on the set.

During the candid conversation, the actor recalled his experience of shooting the film with the actor and said that he had not even gotten any chance to meet Emraan before the filming started. He said, “Mahesh Bhatt was the producer and got a new director on board, Kunal, to direct the project. He explained the entire plot and everything to me when I signed the project, but I had not had an opportunity to meet Emraan Hashmi until then.”

Later on, the two actually met at Newlands Cricket Stadium in South Africa. However, Emraan’s cold behaviour was quite disappointing for him. “I tried to shake hands with him but noticed a very cold response from his side. He shook hands dismissively and even turned his face away, which really irked me. I thought, ‘Big stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Salman Khan respect me so much, call me Javed Ji, and this young guy has this attitude. What does he think of himself?’ When he (Emraan) came, I did the rehearsal but didn’t bother to even look at him. For the days to follow, when we completed the filming, I did not talk to him at all,” Javed added. Even during rehearsal, he refused to go where Emraan was sitting, and instead insisted that the actor should come to him.

Talking about their film, Jannat was a crime drama helmed by Kunal Deshmukh. It also featured Sonal Chauhan and Samir Kochhar. Meanwhile, on the work front, Emraan Hashmi was last seen in the web series Showtime. He will next be seen in Ground Zero.
