Chitrangada Singh says she gave 28 retakes for a shot in 'Raat Akeli Hai 2'
Actress Chitrangada Singh , who was recently seen in 'Housefull 5', has called Honey Trehan a very "demanding director", as she had to give 28 retakes for a shot in 'Raat Akeli Hai 2'. However, the actress is glad because it has helped her better the craft as an actor. The actress recently spoke with IANS, and shared the anecdote. Speaking with IANS, the actress said, " Usually my second or third take is an okay take. We do it more sometimes. But usually my second or third take is the best or okay take. But the film that I have just done 'Raat Akeli Hai 2' with Honey Trehan, I have never taken so many takes in my life. I think it was a very challenging role and Honey is a very demanding director". She further mentioned, "So I think I have given almost 28 takes for one shot. Yes, for the first time in my life. But I am so happy because I think my performance has improved a lot". Did you know fans yelled at Bobby Deol for hugging Ameesha Patel in 'Humraaz' saying 'chor isko ye tere bhai ki amanat hai'? The actress also shared that stories based on real life inspire her as an artist. She feels such stories are important to tell as they open up a new world for the audience. "I am very inspired by true stories, true incidents and true stories. They inspire me a lot. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo I think as cinema people, as filmmakers, it is very important to tell those stories for entertainment or inspiration or whatever you call it. So that's why I get excited with biopics", she added. Recently, a controversy erupted when it was rumoured that Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone left Sandeep Reddy Vanga's film over an 8 hour shift. When asked about her opinion on the subject of 8 hour shifts, the actress told IANS, "It is a matter of personal relationship. What is your understanding with the director? What are the requirements of the director and producer? If they can manage, I am sure they will manage. But sometimes there are restraints. There is a time restraint. There is a money restraint. There is scheduling". "So I think we have to respect that aspect also. Because after all, time is money in this industry. Everybody is investing in a project. I don't want to comment. I think everyone has their own choice. And I think Deepika is a very big actress and it is her right to make a choice. It is her privilege to make a choice", she added.

Meet actress who had a superhit debut, later delivered 20 consecutive flops, then made a major comeback only to fail again, she is... In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, many actors come to Mumbai with a suitcase full of dreams and aspirations to make it big on the silver screen; however, there are only a few who get the much-desired stardom. For some actors, even after venturing successfully in the industry, fame and ongoing victory are not guaranteed. One such story is of an actress who came into this industry with a blockbuster start; however, her accomplished career did not last long. But despite that, her fans haven't forgotten her, and she is still a very relevant name in the industry today. The actress that we are talking about is none other than Ameesha Patel. She made her debut in this industry in the year 2000 with the film Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, where she starred opposite the Greek God of Bollywood, 'Hrithik Roshan'. Ameesha's innocence, radiating smile, and charm captivated the audience and won everyone's heart. Soon after that, Ameesha started getting many offers, and in 2001, she delivered another blockbuster film called Gadar with Sunny Deol that not only hit gold at the box office but became a phenomenon. But her fleeting career did not last long. If reports are to be believed, Ameesha's career saw a major decline after she got involved with Director Vikram Bhatt, who was already married. Ameesha was madly in love with him and had put everything at stake for him. After giving two blockbusters, Ameesha gave 20 consecutive flops, including Humraaz and Parwana. Soon, Ameesha shifted from a lead role to a supporting role. In 2006, she appeared in the film Bhool Bhulaiyaa in a side role. Later in the year 2023, after being away from the limelight, Ameesha made a comeback with the film Gadar 2, which was the sequel to Gadar. This film turned out to be a major blockbuster hit and became her highest-grossing film. It collected Rs. 600 crores at the box office. After her major comeback, Ameesha last appeared in the film Tauba Tera Pyar (2024), which also didn't meet the expectations and turned out to be a major flop. Today, at the age of 50, Ameesha keeps inspiring her fans with her yoga and exercise on social media.

Ameesha Patel: You don't need to be constantly busy making reels to prove your worth
Ameesha Patel Just when it seemed like Ameesha Patel had faded into the background, she came back into the spotlight with the massive success of Gadar 2. Celebrating 25 years in the industry, the actress who made her debut in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai (2000) reflects on her journey, shares her thoughts on her career choices and the importance of staying true to oneself. Excerpts: 'I want to be part of something that's remembered for a long time' Ameesha says that she has always preferred her work to do the talking. 'I've never been one to boast about my work. I let it speak for itself, and that's how I want to continue.' Ask her about her absence from the big screen before Gadar 2, and she says, 'Taking a break to reflect on the kind of cinema and roles that resonate with you is a conscious decision. I don't want to take up any project for the heck of being seen on a Friday. I want to be part of something that will be remembered for a long time. Also, you don't need to be constantly busy on a set making reels to prove your worth.' Ameesha with Sunny Deol in Gadar 2 'I was upset when I learnt about the Gadar climax being altered' Although Gadar 2 was a box-office success, it stirred controversy. Ameesha was upset when the film's climax was changed without her knowledge. She explains, 'I was hurt because I had agreed to do Gadar 2 with the understanding that my character would justifiably take revenge and kill the villain. However, the climax was altered, and when Anil Sharma shot it, he didn't contact me for an entire year. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 임플란트 최대 할인 지원해드려요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo He's family to me, and I expected him to tell me that the original climax had to be changed. Had they retained the original climax, the film might have achieved an even greater cult status. But it's in the past now — the film was a success, and it's time to move on to the next chapter.' Does this mean she wouldn't mind collaborating with him again? She responds, 'I'll collaborate with anyone whose content I like, but I'll be more cautious now when it comes to trust — once bitten, twice shy.' 'I wouldn't change anything about my career' The Humraaz actress has always had an independent streak. Reflecting on her journey, she shares, 'I've never belonged to any group. I've always believed that I should be given opportunities based on merit, not because I have any personal associations with any camp or social circle. In fact, the younger version of me was even more distant from all of this. I understand that being part of these dynamics could have helped my career, and yes, being part of certain camps might have opened doors. However, even then, I chose to stay away from it all, and I wouldn't change anything about my career. God has been kind, and I have a lot to be happy for.' 'I have been happily single for over 15 years' Ask Ameesha about her relationship status, and she replies, 'I've been happily single for over 15 years, and I am content with that for now. I've become synonymous with hardcore romances on screen, with people willing to cross borders for me (laughs!). But I'm sure I am as lucky in real life as I am on the big screen and will soon find my real-life Tara Singh.'
