Rajat Recalls ‘Open Lunch’ Culture At Father Narendra Bedi’s Office

MUMBAI- Actor Rajat Bedi, who made his comeback with the Aryan Khan directorial ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’, has recollected how his home once used to buzz with the biggest stars of Hindi cinema.

As he celebrated the success of ‘The Ba***ds of Bollywood’ and his return to acting, he shared that an open lunch at the Bedi office was a tradition back in the day. Rajat belongs to a huge legacy: his father Narendra Bedi was a successful filmmaker-producer, and his grandfather Rajinder Singh Bedi was a respected Urdu writer and one of the pillars of the progressive writers movement.

He said, “There used to be gatherings at home. The whole industry used to come and sit at home. For lunch, it was an open thing for the industry that if you want food go to Mr. Bedi’s office and eat. So, we have seen such an environment. The films that my father has made, films like ‘Adalat’, ‘Benam’, ‘Sanam Teri Kasam’, and several others, I mean what a body of work.”

In a separate interaction, the actor lavished praise on his co-actor from the series, Raghav Juyal.  “He is outstanding. I mean if you see Raghav’s story, he has worked so hard. What an actor! It was actually my first time working with Raghav. I didn’t have many scenes with Raghav. But whatever, I have performed with him, I can assure you, he is a gem of an actor.”

The show is available to stream on Netflix. (IANS)
