Lights and props are being shifted in and out of the studio. A tall, well-built man is parked outside the entrance, talking on his cell-phone. He's sporting a number of gold chains and bracelets. I guess he is the producer. Bingo! He is Bubby Kent, who had earlier produced two Salman Khan-starrers, Kurbaan and Chandramukhi. His third Salman Khan-starrer is titled Jaanam Samjha Karo but is likely to be retitled as Love Hua though one would have thought sharing a title with Asha Bhosle's superhit award-winning album would have made the project more viable. The director of the film is Andalib Sultanpuri, son of veteran lyricist Majrooh Sultanpuri. Andalib had assisted Rajkumar Santoshi during Andaz Apna Apna, when he got acquainted to Salman. Since then he had been keen to make a film with Salman. After considering a number of actors for this film, he met Salman. But that film did not take off. Andalib had a `different' story which Salman also liked and they discussed it with Bubby, who instantly gave it his nod and the film Love Hua took off. "My film is not really a love story. It is basically a comedy with a touch of romance," explains Andalib. "Unlike other films, this one is about a boy and girl, but they don't fall in love instantly. That happens much later."
Salman plays a rich brat, who spends his nights at different nightspots. During one such night-out, he meets Urmila, a dancer at one nightclub. Slowly love blossoms.
Art director R Varman, who constructed some very good hotel suite sets for Subhash Ghai's Pardes, has done an equally remarkable job at Natraj Studio. A five-star executive suite has been designed for the scene being shot. Salman on a jaunt abroad manages to get Urmila into his hotel room and is trying to seduce her. Dressed in a black outfit, Urmila looks gorgeous as she sits primly on the sofa placed in front of a mirror. She is flipping through her script industriously, while the make-up man gives her made-up face some finishing touches. Cinematographer WB Rao is busy giving instructions to his assistant about how to camera should be set up. A trolley is set at the far end of the room. Lights have been placed in the corners. Andalib sends a spot-boy to call Salman. Moments later Salman walks in with a soft-drink in hand, whistling and waving at some people outside. He's wearing a loose T-shirt over a pair of snug jeans. He giggles and playfully makes faces at Urmila. Then he picks up his script from the table, browses through it before chucking it back on the table. Andalib walks up to the two, explains the scene and asks them to rehearse. Urmila begins reading out her lines obediently. Salman walks out of the room and returns with his mobile. He punches in some numbers and talks for a while, his script in his hand. Rao cajoles him to begin rehearsals. Finally, he joins Urmila in front of the camera at the entrance to the room. The camera moves slowly from left to right as Salman and Urmila move towards it. The Khan delivers his lines in Dev Anand's distinctive style. He is showing Urmi the hotel suite and she is awe-struck. She comes from a middle-class family and a five-star hotel is a dream for her. Though he gets Dev Sahab's style right, Salman fumbles with his lines. They go in for another rehearsal and another till he gets his lines right. Urmila, by now, cannot control her laughter at the way Salman delivers his dialogue. Andalib waits patiently for her to stop. Salman stomps his foot to remind her to keep quiet. But she just cannot control herself.
It's time for a final take. Like thorough professionals, the two deliver the dialogue without any mistakes.
The entire scene shifts to the adjacent room, which is the bedroom. Not much time is wasted here. The lights are already set up, and all the technicians have to shift is the camera. This scene has Salman showing Urmila the bedroom, where they have a 'honeymoon' bed for couples. Ms Matondkar has just two lines to say. Salman also doesn't have too many to mug but he has to have a sly expression on his face. The camera rolls. The bedroom door swings open. Salman tells Urmila, " Ise bedroom kehte hain. Aur yeh honeymoon bed hai." As he moves towards the bed, he bangs his leg against one of the posts. "What the hell? You call this a honeymoon bed," he screams in agony. One of the posts not covered by the sponge, is the cause for Salman's agony. He jumps and frantically holds his leg in hand. The spotboys immediately rush to help, but he isn't hurt badly, he confesses. They cover the post with more sponge. Another take. This time, Salman carefully walks over the bed and then jumps on it. The sort is canned. The still photographer asks the artistes to pose for stills. Urmila takes her position. Salman continues to lie on the bed. The cameraman begins clicking, Salman yawns and pretends to doze off. Rao, tells the photographer jokingly, "Chalo jaldi karo. Sleeping Beauty ka photo Khincho". The photo-session is done and the unit packs up.
