Breakthrough role

Kya Kehna

While filming Kya Kehna, Mukul failed to reach the set on time on the first day of the shoot, and he was to be cast opposite Preity Zinta. Due to his carelessness, he was replaced by Saif Ali Khan at the last moment.

Died date

Not only that, he was asked to return the signing amount of Rs 50,000 but producer Ramesh Raurani. Mukul Dev passed away on May 23 at the age of 54 after a brief illness.

Interview

In an interview, the producer Ramesh Taurani told News18 Showsha in detail about replacing Mukul and said, Actually, Saif wasn’t supposed to do Kya Kehna. An actor called Mukul Dev was going to do it, but he didn’t show up on set on the first day of the shoot. At around 11 am, someone from the production called him up to ask where he was, and he said that he was on his way. They called again at noon, and he said that he’s outside RK Studio, but he never showed up.

Saif Ali Khan

He further added, Our sets were ready, we had to start shooting. I decided to call Saif. I asked if he would be free to meet in the evening, and he said that he would. That’s when I was told that Mukul Dev had come by to the office. I said that I don’t have any interest in speaking to him, and that he should go back home. But he waited outside. When we were leaving to meet Saif, I spoke to him.

Signing amount

Ramesh also shared that he met Mukul at his office and told him that he was no longer part of the film, and asked to return the signing amount of Rs 50,000, as he had broken their trust.
