Television
person
Sajid
Khan
has
followed
in
the
footsteps
of
his
choreographer-turned-director
sister
Farah
Khan
with
his
film
Heyy
Babyy.
The
promo
of
the
film
has
already
registered
record
hits
on
youtube.com.
Sajid
tells
us
what
movie-goers
should
look
forward
to
in
his
debut
film.
You
are
doing
so
well
on
screen,
then
why
take
up
direction?
(Laughs)
Yes,
everybody
is
asking
me
this.
Actually,
since
I
was
just
four
I
had
wanted
to
make
a
movie.
Every
time
I
saw
a
film
I
kept
thinking
how
I
would
have
made
it.
So
you
can
say,
direction
was
my
dream.
Why
a
comedy
film
for
a
debut?
I
am
known
for
comedy,
it
is
my
identity.
So
had
I
made
a
movie
of
any
other
genre,
I
would
not
have
left
my
mark
in
it.
Next
time,
I
will
make
an
action
film.
How
does
the
title
of
the
film
relate
to
its
story?
Men,
irrespective
of
their
nationality,
think
about
other
women
even
after
they
are
married.
I
have
heard
married
men
saying
"Hey
baby,
how
are
you
doing
baby?" and
such
stuff
over
the
phone
to
their
girlfriends.
I
have
a
friend
who
had
the
same
disease.
But
the
day
he
became
father
to
a
baby
girl,
he
was
cured.
Leave
alone
talking,
he
does
not
even
think
of
other
women.
So
I
was
quite
amused
with
the
impact
that
the
small
girl
had
in
my
friend's
life.
It
touched
my
soul
and
I
thought
of
depicting
this
in
a
hilarious
way
through
my
film.
You
have
14
actresses
in
one
item
song,
was
that
required
in
the
movie?
I
had
to
depict
the
flirtatious
nature
of
men.
And
at
the
same
time,
we
had
to
put
up
a
larger-than-life
image
before
the
audience.
For
this
song,
Sajid
Nadiadwala
had
an
estimate
budget
of
Rs
2
crores.
I
could
have
hired
other
girls
but
when
I
asked
known
people
in
the
industry,
they
agreed
readily.
So
taking
them
was
a
better
option.
Wasn't
it
difficult
to
manage
14
actresses?
No,
not
at
all.
Generally
it
is
really
difficult
to
manage
so
many
actresses
at
the
same
time
on
the
sets.
The
reason
I
managed
it
is
because
they
are
all
very
good
friends
of
mine.
The
most
difficult
part
was
to
handle
the
four-month-old
in
the
film.
I
have
never
seen
Akshay
waiting
for
any
of
his
shots.
But
then
we
had
to
wait
for
seven
days
to
capture
one
smile
of
the
baby.
We
used
to
get
irritated
at
times
but
nothing
could
have
been
done,
because
she
is
too
small
to
understand.
Nevertheless,
she
is
so
cute.
Her
real
name
is
Johaina,
but
in
the
film
she
is
Angela.
How
different
do
you
think
is
the
comedy
in
your
film
compared
to
other
comedies?
Not
very
different.
But
I
have
tried
that
all
my
three
actors
do
a
different
kind
of
comedy.
Even
Boman
Irani
has
done
a
Munna
Bhai-style
comedy.
It's
going
to
be
a
treat,
especially
for
children
and
women.
It's
being
said
that
Heyy
Babyy
is
the
copy
of
Hollywood
movie
Three
Men
and
One
Baby?
I
have
scrutinized
a
lot
of
films
and
had
labelled
them
as
copies.
So
I
am
not
so
stupid
that
I
will
copy
and
give
others
a
chance
to
point
a
finger
at
me.
However,
I
personally
believe
that
one
needs
to
be
very
talented
to
copy.
And
I
won't
deny
that
I
wasn't
tempted
to
copy
at
times.
How
was
the
casting
done
for
the
main
lead?
I
am
lucky
that
every
one
I
had
thought
of
while
writing
the
story,
co-operated
with
me.
I
know
Akshay
kumar
and
Fardeen
Khan
since
the
time
they
entered
the
industry,
I
know
Ritesh
from
his
first
movie
and
Vidya
had
invited
me
as
chief
guest
for
a
function
in
Xavier's
College.
You
have
criticized
quite
a
few
people
in
the
past.
Is
it
payback
time
now?
There
is
a
possibility
that
people
who
dislike
me
will
talk
negatively
about
the
film.
But
I
am
confident
that
Heyy
Babyy
will
impress
the
box
office.
You
had
said
that
just
by
watching
a
film
you
can
tell
whether
it
will
do
well
or
not?
Yes,
it's
true.
But
I
can
bet
that
people
will
like
Heyy
Babyy.
Interestingly,
Bunty
Aur
Bubbly
did
a
golden
jubilee
though
critics
had
dismissed
it
as
a
flop
as
soon
as
it
released.
I
have
worked
on
the
story
of
Heyy
Babyy
17
times.
I
strongly
believe
that
this
film
will
do
well.
