Director Nitesh Tiwari reveals they wrote 5 alternative endings for Dangal; says, "We wrote five different versions"

Game Changers, hosted by film trade analyst Komal Nahta, features insightful conversations with prominent figures from the entertainment industry. In a recent episode, National Award-winning filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari shared how the team faced a challenge while writing Dangal, as the audience already knew Geeta would win the gold medal, and they needed to make the story more engaging.

On Komal Nahta's Game Changers podcast, Nitesh Tiwari revealed, “It was very alarming for us as writers as the audience knew that Geeta was going to win the gold. Now how do we make it a little difficult or different for the audience? So when what is known, how becomes important.” The filmmaker further explained that they decided to keep Mahavir Singh out of the finals, and wrote five different versions of how that could happen. This twist made the audience wonder not if Geeta would win, but how she would win without her father's presence.

He further added, “We decided Mahavir Singh cannot be there, he has to be outside, So we wrote five different versions of what can keep him out. And then we finally agreed to this one as it was paying off for the national anthem. So audience will not think that Geeta will win gold but they will think about how will she win when Mahavir Singh is not there. That was the whole idea to keep him out of the finals.”

With Game Changers, Komal Nahta is bringing a fresh perspective to discussions on Indian cinema. Catch the latest episodes on the YouTube channel.

Inside Salman Khan’s Rs. 100 crore 1 BHK flat at Galaxy Apartments in Mumbai, see unseen photos

Salman Khan’s fan following spans across continents. Yet, amidst the glitz and glamour, Khan is deeply rooted in family values and simplicity. One aspect of his life that often surprises many is his choice of residence. While one might expect a Bollywood superstar to dwell in sprawling mansions adorned with opulence, Khan's home is a stark departure from such expectations. For over two decades, he has called the modest Galaxy Apartments in Bandra, Mumbai, valued at Rs. 100 crore, per Housing.com and Square Yards. Nestled in the posh locality of Bandstand, Galaxy Apartments is not a lavish mansion but a humble 1BHK flat.
