Filmmaker Mansoor Khan recently spoke about the original cast of 'Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar'. Calling it a "mistake", the director said, "It was the wrong cast...I won't take names, but those people were absolutely unprofessional. They made life miserable, not just for me, but for the entire crew." The original cast included Milind Soman, Karishma Pahuja, and Girija.
