So next weekend, the channels will probably play it again, on August 15! It’s a track which is very fresh in the minds of the people and it’s a song on which students perform in schools. In fact, Pardes is aired on television every Independence Day and Republic Day thanks to the song 'I Love My India'. Again, I can’t believe that it’s been so long. Yes and I was tagged by so many of its fans on Instagram. People still play its tracks.Īlso, your debut flick Pardes completed 23 years on August 8… Even today, songs are being heard by its fans. The first part was quite a simple and mainstream flick which worked pan-India. I hope if a sequel is made, it releases in cinemas. And just with that one song 'Aksar Is Duniya Mein', I went on a world tour, accompanied by Akshay and Suniel! I got nominated and I won an award for Best Supporting Actress. But Dhadkan went on to become such a big hit. I agreed and I didn’t really expect much.

I asked Dharmesh ji how many days he’d want from me. My sentiments were with him as the girl had walked out on him. So I saw the film and felt very bad for the character of Dev, played by Suniel Shetty. I declined as I had to go for a shoot but he didn’t agree. When I reached his place, he said ‘Come, I want to show you the film’. I decided that the next day, while I am on my way to a shoot, I’ll drop over to his place and inform him that I don’t want to do the film. I told him that I’d think about it but I was not in the mood to do it. So the idea was to give the film some freshness. He told me about his plans and that I’d have a song in my entry scene. But he wanted to change the ending and was keen to reshoot. He also told me that the film stars Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty and Shilpa Shetty and that as per what they have shot, Suniel’s character Dev dies in the end. He informed me that he had shot this film 2-3 years back and that he hasn’t been able to release it. This is when his film Mela had released and it had not done well. He came over and narrated Dhadkan’s script.
