ANIL SHARMA ON HIS BOND WITH AMEESHA PATEL
“Mera rishta kabhi kissi ke saath kharab nahi hota. Tu-tu-main-main bhi hui, theek bhi ho gayi. Ameesha ji ka nature aise hi hai. Pichli Gadar ke dauraan unse meeting ke dauraan tu-tu-main-main ho gayi thi. Woh bade ghar ki bitiya hain, unke mizaaj thode bade hain, magar dil ki buri nahi hain, dil ki achi hain. Bade ghar ki beti jo hoti hai kabhi kabhi tunakmizaaji aa jaati hai. Hum log chote ghar ke log hain. Hum log pyaar mohabbat se rehte hain. Woh bhi rehti hain, but thoda sa attitude, ek adaa hai unme jo kabhi kabhi tedhi-medhi ho jaati hai, lekin insaan achi hain (I have a good bond with everybody. I’ve had my share of disagreements with her, but that’s her nature. It had happened during the first film too. She comes from a big family, and she carries that attitude and air around with her. I’m a simple person, I believe in love. She does, too, but sometimes her attitude gets in the way. She is a kind person nonetheless),” said Sharma.
Anil Sharma also threw light on why he chose Ameesha for the part. He said that he wanted someone who resembled 'the moon.'
The director explained, “For Sakeena, I wanted an actor with a face like the moon. But she was weak at acting. Another girl we’d shortlisted was a better actor, but Ameesha had the built-in personality of someone from an important family. I knew we would have to train her, and she agreed to undergo training for six months.”
Gadar 2 marks the return of Sunny Deol as Tara Singh, and also stars Utkarsh Sharma in a pivotal role.
