Emotional scene with the mother in KGF 1 was not part of the script
Perhaps exactly six years ago, indian audiences saw yash become a pan-India superstar through KGF. Rocky's character, played by Yash, was not only a symbol of rebellion and strength, but his emotions also touched everyone's heart. One scene from this film that is always remembered is when rocky helps a troubled mother and says, "The greatest warrior in the world is a mother." This scene was so emotional that it showed Rocky's real thinking, which touched the hearts of the audience.
Meanwhile in a recent interview, yash shared interesting things about the creative process behind this scene. He told that this scene was not part of the original script. Earlier in this scene it was shown that rocky helps an elderly woman cross the road. But during the editing session, executive producer Rama Rao suggested a major change. Since Rocky's mother was an important part of his story, it felt right to add her emotion in this special moment. yash further said, "I always create an environment where even the last assistant director can come and tell me that the last take was good, boss. I do this because when you give everyone a chance to speak openly, sometimes amazing ideas come out. The same thing happened in KGF. prashant and I were watching the edit and working on that scene. The famous scene with the mother was actually a scene in the script where an old woman was crossing the road.
Moreover in that scene, I take out the gun, and it was shot as a gun scene. So my executive producer, Sri Rama Rao, was watching the edit. He came and said, 'The whole film is about mother. Why can't the mother be in this scene?' Hearing this, prashant and I looked at each other. We also thought, this is a great idea! Then I asked, 'What should we do now?' prashant said, 'Don't worry, we will shoot this scene again.' After this we called a woman with a small child. Then rocky remembers his mother, and I go out and talk to that woman. During that time we needed a dialogue, and while discussing that line was made. Everything happened on its own." He further said, "You never know, we worked on that script for 4-5 years. We were working since 2014, but no one knows where this idea will come from. The person handling the production came and told us something, and if that thing is right then we should accept it. I believe that this should be the thinking and environment. Otherwise no one knows everything. cinema is completely a team work. The director and the whole team have to work together. Only then the magic happens!"
