Today, Kunal Kemmu has carved a niche for himself in the industry with his distinctive brand of comedy and has emerged as one of Bollywood’s most original filmmakers. But long before he stepped behind the camera, Kemmu was a popular child actor who appeared in several successful films in the early 1990s. A significant part of his early career was shaped by filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who directed him in some of his most memorable roles and later gave him his first major break as an adult actor.
However, Bhatt was also involved in what Kemmu now describes as the “worst deal” he ever made. In a recent interview, the actor-filmmaker looked back at his childhood years in the film industry and recalled an amusing incident from the making of ‘Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke’.
