But the experience made him second guess his decision. He has spoken often about the difficult time he had with the two actors, and has previously accused them of throwing tantrums on set and making unreasonable demands. In a new interview, Mika recalled how Bipasha brought the shoot to a halt for three hours because she wanted an omelette. \u201c<em>Ek omelette ke peeche pura shoot ruk gaya. Teen ghante ke liye shoot ruk gaya omelette ke peeche<\/em> (The entire shoot was halted over an omelette for three hours),\u201d he told Shubhankar Mishra on his podcast.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the production, Mika said, \u201cIt was a dangerous experience. The movie starred <a rel=\"noamphtml\" class=\"keywordtourl\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/about\/bipasha-basu\/\">Bipasha Basu<\/a> and her husband, Karan Singh Grover. The last time they worked together was in 2013, in a movie called Alone. How was I supposed to know that producers are actually worthless in this business. I thought producers are the big-shots. Now, <a rel=\"noamphtml\" class=\"keywordtourl\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/about\/akshay-kumar\/\">Akshay Kumar<\/a> has taught me what a producer really does; they only call actors to set and tell them that the shot is ready.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><ev-engagement group-name=\"contentLogin\"\/><ev-engagement group-name=\"myNotification\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"ev-meter-content ie-premium-content-block\">\n<p><strong>Also read \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/bollywood\/bipasha-basu-shares-cryptic-note-after-mika-singh-claims-she-threw-tantrums-inflated-his-shows-budget-9865783\/\" class=\"\">Bipasha Basu shares cryptic note after Mika Singh claims she threw \u2018tantrums\u2019, inflated his show\u2019s budget: \u2018Toxic people point fingers\u2026\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"osv-ad-class\" style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;height: 375px;margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<p>Story continues below this ad<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>He continued, \u201cIn my head, I\u2019m the best producer of Bollywood after Dharma. I\u2019m sitting here, and they have a problem with their omelette on set. Luckily, I had sent my personal chef to be with them, anticipating exactly something like this. I\u2019d told him to placate them if something goes wrong. Bipasha didn\u2019t eat her breakfast and showed up on set. At 11 in the morning, I get a call, \u2018Mika, what is happening? This is such a rubbish production\u2019. I was like, \u2018What happened?\u2019 She says, \u2018Omelette\u2019. I told my guy to make her an omelette.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mika said that things went from bad to worse when Karan broke his leg, and insisted upon getting treatment in London. He said, \u201cI\u2019m sitting here, having spent all that money on the production. Then, Karan breaks his leg. He could\u2019ve gotten it treated in India, but he stayed there for three months. It was a childishly simple stunt, and he broke his leg, poor guy. I have no beef with them, but it makes you wonder why certain people aren\u2019t successful. You should never turn your nose at opportunities. You don\u2019t respect success. You think that the producer is your servant. You should worship producers, because you don\u2019t know what\u2019ll happen to you tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"subscriber_hide\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/subscribe\/upsc-special\/?utm_source=IESITE&amp;utm_medium=Banner&amp;utm_campaign=Inarticle\" title=\"Festive offer\" data-ie-event-category=\"Event_banner\" data-ie-event-action=\"Article\" data-ie-event-label=\"Desktop\"><img class=\"lazyloading\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\" data-lazy-type=\"lazyloading-image\" src=\"https:\/\/images.indianexpress.com\/2025\/04\/UPSC_banner_640x70.jpg\" alt=\"Festive offer\" width=\"640px\" height=\"99px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Previously, in an interview on the KADAK YouTube channel, the singer said that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/bollywood\/horrible-to-work-with-bipasha-basu-karan-singh-grover-they-demanded-for-separate-rooms-despite-being-married-mika-singh-9748775\/\" class=\"\">Bipasha and Karan demanded separate rooms<\/a><\/strong>, and refused to perform a kissing scene that was in the script.

They were a married couple, so I booked a single room for them. But, they were like, \u2018No, we need our separate rooms.\u2019 I didn\u2019t understand the logic.
