Dissatisfaction on Set
In a recent interview on Siddharth Kannan's YouTube channel, Nikitin revealed a "very bad experience" on Jodhaa Akbar. He asserted, “As an artist, I didn’t have fun working on the film.

He addressed rumors suggesting director Ashutosh Gowariker was upset with him for signing another project (Mission Istanbul) before Jodhaa Akbar's release. Dheer stated that his experience on the film nearly led him to quit acting altogether. He contrasted it with the positive experience he had on Mission Istanbul.

He recounted a specific instance where he flew back from Istanbul to dub his lines, only to be informed on the third day that his part would be dubbed by someone else.
