EXCLUSIVE: Ameesha Patel claims Yeh Hai Jalwa got ‘sidelined’ due to Salman Khan’s accident; says, “Had the audience been open to it, that was one film that would have done really well”

Making her debut with Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, Ameesha Patel, who has acted with some of the biggest stars like Hrithik Roshan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, among others, recently opened up about the films in her career. Riding high on the success of Gadar 2, Ameesha recalled her journey in Bollywood and discussed with Bollywood Hungama about the films she chose, about the films she had faith in, and also discussed the reason behind the films not meeting her expectations.

EXCLUSIVE: Ameesha Patel claims Yeh Hai Jalwa got ‘sidelined’ due to Salman Khan’s accident; says, “Had the audience been open to it, that was one film that would have done really well”

When asked her about films she had faith in but failed to perform at the box office, Ameesha revealed to Bollywood Hungama that she had a lot of expectations from the Salman Khan starrer Yeh Hai Jalwa, Ajay Devgan starrer Zameer, and Aamir Khan starrer Mangal Pandey. Talking about the film with Salman, Ameesha said, “I think Yeh Hai Jalwa was one of David Dhawan’s, best films. Salman has never looked more handsome and this music and everything was good. But I think earlier, the audiences were not so open about accepting some negative news given by the media about their favorite actors. Salman Khan’s accident had newly happened, so I think Yeh Hai Jalwa got sidelined, Had the audience been open to it, that was one film that would have done really well.”

She further spoke about her film with Ajay, as she continued, “Then there was a film called Zameer with Ajay Devgan, where he is my professor, which was a remake of a South Indian film, which was a national award-winning film. Unfortunately, the producer passed away when the film was about released so it couldn’t get to the audiences correctly the way it should have had the producer been alive.”


She also believes that Mangal Pandey did not get its due credit as she added, “So there were a couple of things. Like I didn’t think Mangal Pandey needed to be written off so badly the way they wrote it off.” She concluded, “However, films like Bhool Bhulaiyya, Race 2, Honeymoon Travels, I knew somewhere they had strike a chord and they’d work.”

Ameesha Patel and Sunny Deol starrer and Anil Sharma’s recent directorial Gadar 2 has been creating a massive buzz at the box office with the film becoming one of the top grossers in Bollywood.

Banita Sandhu and AP Dhillon spice up things up as they formally announce their romance on Instagram

It appears that Banita Sandhu has made her relationship with Indo-Canadian singer AP Dhillon official on Instagram. AP Dhillon and Banita Sandhu appeared in the singer’s most recent song video, With You, which sparked rumours about their relationship. Banita and AP Dhillon feature in some sweet, tender moments in the music video clip while on what appears to be a vacation in Italy. A big screening of AP Dhillon: First Of A Kind, his documentary series, was recently held in Mumbai. The singer, who arrived at the celebration with actress Banita Sandhu, was the centre of attention. Banita has now put an end to their reported romance by posting a number of photos with AP Dhillon to Instagram, setting that social media site ablaze

The duo is pictured donning the same attire they did for the premiere of the documentary series AP Dhillon: First Of A Kind. Banita Sandhu stuck to the classics, while the singer wore a casual yet elegant outfit. The singer donned printed trousers, a coat that matched them, and an inside round-neck t-shirt. The white base had prints in rust red and black that upped the fit’s stylish factor. His appeal was enhanced by his well-groomed beard and styled hair. We were very struck by his selection of simple yet eye-catching accessories. A stylish earring (in one ear lobe) with dazzling chains dropping down and a silver chain used as a choker.

The actress, on the other hand, looked sexy in a crimson ruched dress. The stylish outfit was secured in place by the spaghetti straps. The red number has a tiny split on the side for more oomph. The attire perfectly highlighted Banita’s curves and caressed her toned physique. Her simple diamond stud earrings served as the perfect finishing touch. Her makeup was completed with a flawlessly winged eyeliner, minimal glam, and a liberal amount of gloss on the lips. Our hearts were won over by Banita’s unkempt yet stylish updo. She left a few wavy strands open to give an ideal framework to her face. In the caption, she wrote, “with me.” Banita Sandhu and AP Dhillon’s sensuous chemistry shines through these photographs. While their coupling is unconfirmed, they are already the ‘it’ couple of Bollywood.
