When Isha Koppikar Felt 'Completely Broken' After Bollywood Actor Asked Her To Meet Alone: Was Thrown Out Of Film

Bollywood actress Isha Koppikar is celebrating her 47th birthday. The actress made her acting debut in the 1998 Tamil film Kaadhal Kavithai and went on to make her Bollywood debut in the film Fiza in 2000. Isha has starred in a number of hit films like Shah Rukh Khan's Don, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Kyaa Kool Hai Hum, Don, Company, Rudraksh and more. She was recently seen in the 2022 released OTT series Dhahanam. While the actress has spent a considerable amount of time in the film industry, the actress all experiences weren't worth recalling. In one of her interviews, the actress revealed that she was thrown out of a film after she was asked to meet a Bollywood star.

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, last year, the actress recalled the incident where she felt 'broken'. Isha shared, "I was completely broken and disillusioned. Because l thought that what matters is how you look and act but what actually matters is that you are in the hero's good books and good books meant this. I feel all of us have our threshold and priority. For me, my life is bigger than my work. At the end of the day, it is my conscience, I need to look at the mirror and feel good about it." She added that there may be people who beg to differ and would get a good night's sleep after doing all this."

Isha first opened up about the incident, back in 2000. She told Bombay Times, “In mid-2000, I was called by a renowned producer who said that you have to be in the good books of the hero. I didn’t know what he meant. So, I called up the hero, who asked me to meet him alone."

"At that point, he was being accused of infidelity, so he asked me to visit him minus my staff. I called the producer and told him that I am here due to my talent and looks and if that can get me good work, then it’s good enough. I was thrown out of the film," she added.
