Did You Know?
| Trivia | Mela is considered Aamir Khan's worst film and he himself has said that the film was one of his biggest mistakes in his film career. He said that the film was not the way he wanted it to be at all, and had many disagreements with director Dharmesh Darshan. Most days Aamir became so upset that he would even refuse to film. And when the film released, Aamir was extremely disappointed with the final outcome. See more » |
