Vishal Bhardwaj won't work with Naseeruddin Shah due to temper, exceptions exist.
In an interview with Lallantop, Vishal Bhardwaj praised Irrfan Khan and Naseeruddin Shah, acknowledging their ability to portray any character on screen. He also mentioned that Naseeruddin Shah can be temperamental at times, leading him to vow not to work with him again. However, Bhardwaj finds it challenging to stick to that decision because Naseeruddin Shah's exceptional talent overshadows everything else. Bhardwaj expressed, "The special thing about these individuals is that they are such great artists that they can portray any character in their own unique way, although Naseer Saab sometimes gets irritated during shooting. His temper is quite... Every time I tell him I won't work with him again, it's enough. But then when I see his work, everything feels incomplete without Naseer Saab." Naseeruddin Shah is undeniably one of Bollywood's greatest actors and is revered as a legend in the industry.
Naseeruddin Shah and Vishal Bhardwaj reunited for the web series "Charlie Chopra," where Naseeruddin Shah stars alongside his sons Vivaan and Imaad, with Ratna Pathak Shah also in the cast. The first season of the series is available on SonyLiv. Naseeruddin Shah has previously acknowledged his temper, sharing with Humans of Bombay that Ratna Pathak Shah's parents were initially against their marriage due to his behavior.
