Let’s look back at the time when Suniel Shetty recalled working with Divya Bharti in Mohra. Read on to know more.
Suniel Shetty Remembered Working With Divya Bharti
In a conversation with Radio Nasha, Suniel Shetty opened up about shooting with the late actress Divya Bharti. He shared, “We shot at Pahalgam jail, but that girl was fearless. There were real convicts in the jail, yet she was absolutely fearless. She was full of life and masti. Toh kahi naa kahi Rajiv (director) ko kaise sata sakte hai, Shabeer (screenplay writer) ko hum kaise sata sakte hai, humari planning wahi rehti thi. What should we do to get people to laugh and lighten the atmosphere? She was an absolute dream to work with.”
Suniel Shetty Reacted To Anil Kapoor’s Old Jibe
Further speaking about Anil Kapoor calling him and Akshay Kumar “50% wale heroes” after Mohra’s poster release, Suniel said, “Woh star the, woh bol sakte the. He meant that a single hero should have been taken instead of two actors. Jawani mein hum sabne kahi naa kahi dialouge mara hai aur media ko maza aata tha usse pick karne mein.”
