Dialogue

What's left behind the scenes

  • Shah Rukh Khan himself suggested Sushmita Sen for the role of the bar dancer.
  • The name "Ashoka" in Sanskrit means "without sorrow," "without regret," "ruthless." In the beginning of the final dialogue between Ashoka and Kaurvaki, when she repeats his name several times (heard as "Ashok! Ashok!"), this part was inexplicably translated in the Russian dub as Kaurvaki accusing Ashoka of concealing his name. In reality, she is accusing him of what happened on the battlefield – "Ruthless! Ruthless!"
  • In preparation for filming, Shah Rukh Khan and Kareena Kapoor learned fencing.
  • Shah Rukh Khan wanted Aishwarya Rai Bachchan to be his co-star. However, director Santosh Sivan decided that it should be an actress he had not previously starred with in a leading role, and he chose Kareena Kapoor.
