Sanjay Leela Bhansali defends Devdas and calls him ‘most noble’ character after Shah Rukh Khan claimed he was ‘spineless’: ‘My actors didn’t understand…’
Complex characters in Bollywood have been a reason for debate among filmmakers and actors, and one such character is Devdas. Sanjay Leela Bhansali made the film Devdas based on the 1917 novel of the same name. A few weeks ago, Shah Rukh expressed how he didn’t like the character because it demanded women and had commitment issues. In a new interview, its director, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, defended Devads and explained that he felt it was a noble and loved Paro with all his heart.
