Vivek Agnihotri recalled making his 2007 sports-drama 'Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal' and spoke about the creative compromises he faced while making the movie. He said, "[The] actors in their contracts were adding clauses like I can’t say dialogues more than two lines." He revealed that actors would meet Anurag Kashyap, who penned dialogue, and ask him to reduce their lines.
