Don't want to work with actors who don't respect & take people for granted- EDKV's Director Aijaz Shaikh lashes out on Namik Paul
Sony TV's Ek Duje Ke Vaaste going off air has made a lot of fans disheartened. While on one hand, fans are trying their best to convince the makers in not letting the show go off air, here we have Namik Paul and director Aijaz Shaikh who seem to have had a fall out on sets.
According to reports, Namik got into a heated argument with director Aijaz, following which Aijaz left the show!
Apparently, Namik and Aijaz got into a verbal dispute while shooting for a scene and things got so worse that Aijaz stormed off the sets.
While talking to an online portal, Aijaz said, "Yes, I have left the show. I have no issues with the production house. They are really very good. But I had issues with Namik. But since only two days of shooting is remaining, I didn't want to create an issue because I want to work with them in future. We all are here to work and everyone should know their limits. It's normal for people of the same age to get comfortable with each other, but there should be respect," the miffed director added. He further said, "Namik is a very good actor but he should know how to respect people. I know people are really liking Namik and he is doing good work and there are fans who really love him, but I feel he could not really handle all this appreciation and got carried away."
While talking about his fall out with Namik, Aijaz said, "It so happened that Namik yelled, 'Director ka kya kaam hota hai set pe... cameraman makes the block'... which really hurt me. Who is he to tell me things like these? Even Shah Rukh Khan, who is in that position today will never say such kind of words to the director So who is he to teach me my work?! A director is the one who teaches you how to give the right expressions. I am working on the project for the past 7-8 months and when Nikita was not there, I was the only one who managed the shoot without the lead actor. When actor throws tantrums on the set, the channel and the makers of the show, both are helpless because actors are the ones who are the face value of the show and people don't see how much effort goes behind the camera. Me and Namik had a little argument on the set. It was nothing major but the next day, when I went on the sets, I started getting negative feelings. So I spoke to the producer and they were really sweet to let me go off the project. I don't want to work with such actors who don't know how to give respect and who take people for granted."
On the other hand, Namik said, "We also spoke to Namik about the same and he told us, "Its nothing like that. We are of the same age and such things happen. It's normal."
We hope all is sorted soon!
