Did Kajol Turn Down Gadar Before Ameesha Patel Took Over? Here’s What She Said!

In an industry where speculation often travels faster than confirmation, Bollywood has always had its fair share of casting rumors that are nothing more than a myth. One such longstanding rumor has revolved around the blockbuster Gadar: Ek Prem Katha. It was a film that not only defined Sunny Deol’s legacy but also catapulted Ameesha Patel to stardom as the soft-spoken, resilient Sakina.

For years, whispers suggested that the role was first offered to Kajol, one of the most celebrated and discerning actors of her generation. The idea has intrigued fans, imagining how Kajol’s dynamic screen presence might have shaped the film. But as it turns out, that image is purely fictional. At a recent event, Kajol finally addressed the speculation, setting the record straight.
