“Saara sheher mujhe LOIN ke naam se jaanta hai”

21st September 2009

When Ajit said “Saara sheher mujhe LOIN ke naam se jaanta hai” (The whole town knows me by the name of LOIN) what was the reason behind it? Did Ajit really used to pronounce Lion as Loin? Did he do this on purpose to add some character to his role or was it some sort of a private joke among the crew shooting the movie? And was Shatrughan Sinha ever tempted to make a wise crack at it like “Aur saara shehar mujhe GROIN ke naam se jaanta hai.”
