Nirmal and the team tried to copy Rajesh’s character in ‘Arjun’ and the promotion was also focused on making it similar to the hit movie. But, the movie failed miserably.

Other movies Nirmal made were ‘Jalan’, ‘Aamako Maya’ and ‘Jetho Kancho’. None of these movies could recover the investment for Nirmal.
