Kitu Gidwani opened up about how she got the role in a chat with Siddharth Kannan and said, “At that time, Aamir Khan was a nobody! We were all crazy on the film institute campus. Ketan Ji (filmmaker Ketan Mehta) asked me: Kitu, lately you have been mostly seen at the Film Institute… so I said, “Yes, I have been doing student films.” Suddenly he said to himself, “Do you want to do Holi?” I thought, “What is Holi?” » He said, “It’s a film I’m making.” And that’s how it all happened.
She added: “I just played the hot girl on campus,” the actress said. Back then, it wasn’t about the money or the stepping stone. We just did what we loved.
Recalling what Aamir was like at that time, Kitu said, “He had just started his career in cinema then. He is a man who loves cinema. He was creative. I had no idea who Aamir Khan was .Aamir was a very calm person. “They were all very humble and cool. He was very nervous when we had to kiss. He was as nervous as I was then.
The film also starred Naseeruddin Shah. Sharing her experience of working with Naseer, she said, “Naseer is quite humble when he presents himself in front of his co-actors. I joined his theater troupe, Motley Crew. For us, work was more important. For Naseer, work is worship. He was our friend, but I considered him my guru. He never asked for it, I wanted to respect him.
