Sooraj Barjatya reveals his golden rules while making films: "No villains, just circumstances; and exactly 14 punches!" March 23, 2025 at 04:00PM

Sooraj Barjatya had an interesting conversation with Mayank Shekhar of Mid-Day, during which he spoke about his films, his journey and also that of his production house, Rajshri Productions, started by his grandfather, Tarachand Barjatya. The films of Sooraj and also his recently released maiden web series, Bada Naam Karenge, don’t have a villain. Action also needs to be minimal, if required. Sooraj Barjatya spoke about this and also that his family follows a rule book: There can't be a (conventional) villain, and the number of punches cannot exceed 14!

Sooraj Barjatya revealed, “My father (Rajkumar Barjatya) and grandfather knew that the villain is a must. But it's best if the villain can be a circumstance so that we don’t have too much violence. In Hum Aapke Hain Koun (1994), the death of the bhabhi is a circumstance. In Maine Pyar Kiya (1987), bechare ke note bheeg jaate hai. That is the circumstance. In Uunchai (2022), the protagonists want to climb the mountain and, in their case, age is a circumstance.”

As for the 14-punches rule, Sooraj said, “You know how action directors are? They can go on and on (laughs). They’ll be like ‘Aise maarenge’. They’ll go on and on until you stop them from fighting. Hence, we came up with this idea that ’14 punches ka fight chahiye; bas itna hi maarenge’!”

He further explained, “The idea was that the families should be able to see the film together. That used to be the core. At times, we have gone out and broken these rules. Somehow, they have not worked, and we keep coming up. The films that have worked for us are the ones that have stuck to these values.”

Sooraj Barjatya also spoke in-depth about making Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon (2003) and how its underperformance brought him back to his roots.

Akshaye entered the scene, took it from that point, and spontaneous...
