Was interested in music as a child

Danny was born on February 25, 1948, in Gangtok, Sikkim. He was passionate about music and art from childhood. After completing his education, he went to FTII to study acting.

I felt very bad about what the director said.

Danny wanted to gain popularity in the industry as a ghazal singer, but fate had other plans for him. In his early days, he had to visit studios and directors' homes in search of roles, but success was nowhere to be found. Once, when he arrived at director Mohan Kumar's bungalow, he was offered a job as a guard. This deeply offended him. He resolved to become such a big star that one day he would own a bungalow near the director's, and indeed, that's exactly what happened.

Additionally, there's a story that claims Danny had a major dispute with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan. Because of this, Danny refused to work with Salman Khan in films for 23 years. Let's find out what happened.

Salman was reprimanded

In fact, in 1991, Danny and Salman worked together on the romantic film "Sanam Bewafa." Danny arrived on set on time, as usual. However, Salman, who was new to the industry at the time, was several hours late. This angered Danny. He reprimanded Salman in front of the film crew for his unprofessional behavior. Danny felt that being late was a disrespect for others' time. After that day, Danny decided never to work with Salman Khan again. This continued for 23 years.
