Indian cinema is a place where controversies often erupt. Whether it was the golden era or the 21st century, hot topics, gossip, and even heated arguments have always been a part of the industry. Today, we will tell you about a controversy that made headlines after a writer slapped one of the biggest actors of that time. As a result, the writer was boycotted by many well-known faces in the industry, who never wanted to work with him again. This incident took a toll on the writer’s health, eventually leading to his death from a heart attack.

If you’re wondering who we are talking about, let us tell you—the person in discussion is famous actor Tinu Anand’s father, Inder Raj Anand. Tinu opened up about the incident and recalled how it affected his father.

The incident took place on the sets of the film Sangam, in which Raj Kapoor played the lead role. The screenplay and script of the film were written by Inder Raj Anand. Tinu recalled that his father and Raj Kapoor got into a heated argument, and without warning, Inder lost his cool and slapped Raj Kapoor. To this day, the reason for the fight remains unknown.

“My father also saw lots of ups and downs. He was the most popular writer in the film industry. He was writing about 18 films. A fight broke out between them on the night of Sangam’s release, and my father slapped Raj Kapoor,” Tinu said.

After Inder slapped Raj Kapoor, things got extremely messy. The full cast of Sangam, along with other big shots of Indian cinema, decided to boycott Inder.

In the same interview, Tinu revealed that due to this one incident, his father lost 18 movies. This caused him immense stress, leading to a heart attack.

When Tinu was asked whether or not Raj Kapoor came to visit his father during his hospitalization, the actor replied that Raj was shooting in London at the time, so he sent his wife Krishna Raj Kapoor to pay a visit. During that time, everyone from the Sangam cast who had boycotted Inder also came to see him.

Meanwhile, let us tell you that Tinu Anand is also a well-known figure in Bollywood. He has played several grey-shaded roles that audiences have loved.
