  | It was a television serial that served as a springboard for Shahrukh Khanto somersault into the world of movies. More than two decades later, SRK is now turning the yesteryear hit serial ‘Fauji’ into a film. But certain people associated with the serial are unhappy.
Amina Sherwani, who played the love interest of Shah Rukh’s elder brother in the serial, has made a startling revelation.
She claims she and her husband Milind were the co-writers of the serial which was officially written and directed by Colonel Kapoor.
According to Amina, in the original script, which was titled Abhimanyu, SRK had a side role. His role was increased only after a request from his mother. Amina said she and her husband Milind (son of Colonel Kapoor) made many alterations in the script to change Abhimanyu to ‘Fauji’, the serial that took the Indian television by storm.
Amina’s only grouse now is that she hasn’t been approached by SRK’s company when the serial is being made into a film. She wants to be part of the film’s creative team.
She claims SRK knows well her contribution to Fauji but has forgotten her after becoming a superstar.
