In 1986, the Hindi film Jaanbaaz became very popular for its action, songs, and on-screen chemistry between Anil Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia. Directed by Feroz Khan, the movie starred Anil Kapoor in the lead role alongside Dimple Kapadia. While the film is remembered as a hit, few people know about an interesting incident that happened during its shoot.
Dimple Kapadia Refused Scene with Anil Kapoor
The incident occurred during an intimate scene planned at Feroz Khan’s farmhouse stable. As part of the scene, Anil Kapoor had to take off his shirt. However, when Dimple Kapadia saw him shirtless, she was surprised by his chest hair and refused to continue the shoot. She felt uncomfortable and did not want to act at that particular moment.

Seeing the situation, director Feroz Khan personally stepped in to convince Dimple Kapadia. After some discussion and persuasion, she finally agreed to perform the scene. Even after agreeing, Dimple playfully teased Anil Kapoor, calling him “baal ki dukaan,” which means “a shop full of hair,” showing her humorous reaction to the situation.
The film went on to become a commercial success, and the songs, including the famous track Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta Yahan Pyaar Zindagi Mein, were loved by the audience. Dimple Kapadia and Anil Kapoor’s performances were praised, and their chemistry on screen added to the film’s popularity.
