Gadar 2 is a storm at the box office. The movie is racing towards the Rs 500 crore mark looking all set to overtake Pathaan. Sunny Deol and Shah Rukh Khan are now the 90s stars who have again overshadowed everyone at the Bollywood box office. They have also resurrected the industry in 2023 after a rather bleak 2022. Another big beneficiary has been Ameesha Patel. She has made a great comeback with Gadar 2. The kind of love people have shown to Sakina proves that Ameesha Patel is still adored by millions all over India. Gadar 2 made over Rs 90 crores in its second weekend. It has beaten the records set by Baahubali 2. This is an epic feat.
Ameesha Patel makes interesting revelation
Ameesha Patel made her entry in Bollywood with a splash in 1998 with Kaho Na Pyaar Hai. Both Gadar and KNPH got released in quick succession. Gadar and Gadar 2 are two all-time blockbusters of the Hindi film industry. Ameesha Patel did a number of films after that. In fact, she was advised against signing Gadar as people felt she would look too young with Sunny Deol. Ameesha Patel said she got a number of compliments after Gadar. One of them was from legendary filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali. She has said in a recent interview that he wrote a really beautiful complimentary letter after the release of Gadar. When they met, he told her that she should retire now.
Ameesha Patel recalled that Sanjay Leela Bhansali told her, "Because you have already achieved in two films which most people don't achieve in their entire career. Once in a lifetime (films like) Mughal-e-Azam, Mother India, Pakeezah, Sholay get made, you had it in your second film, so what next?'" The actress says she did not understand its meaning in entirety. Ameesha Patel was studying in Boston at that time and travelled between India and the US.
Ameesha Patel on her career and regrets
Ameesha Patel told Bollywood Life that she has no regrets. She has worked with all the big stars of her times. She also said that she had to turn down blockbusters like Chalte Chalte, Tere Naam and Munnabhai MBBS as she was doing other films.
