'I am really speaking Aamir', when the actor called Pradeep Rawat's house at midnight, got scolded by his sister

Mukesh Rishi was doing 'Lagaan', so he had to leave the film.

In response to this, Pradiv Rawat said, 'At that time Mukesh Rishi had six South films and he was not able to adjust the dates of those films for Lagaan. That's why he had to leave 'Lagaan'. At that time Aamir Khan Productions wanted a lot of dates simultaneously. Since Mukesh Rishi couldn't do it, I was the next option. I had 'Sarfarosh' with him. Aamir liked my role of Sultan in it very much.
