and move forward, you try and let go of
many such old stories which are long
forgotten. Bollywood is one such place
where you see many mysteries unfolding in
the realm of life. One such long forgotten
story is of Subhash Ghai and Manisha
Koirala's fallout when they were working
together in 1991 film Saudagar.
Manisha's stellar performance in the film
was appreciated by all the critics back then
and she rose to heights. Subhash had given
her a launch pad back then. But, things soon
went wrong when reports started doing the
rounds that Subhash made sexual advances
towards Manisha which ended with the
latter accusing him of his indecent behavior.
However, these were just rumours.Manisha
never came in public and admitted to what
all was reported. Apparently, Manisha's
mother was hopping all around and telling
people about the filmmaker's attitude. Some
reports went on to claim that her mother
did all this keep her daughter in limelight.
Going by what all pieces of information we
have, Ghai used to make sure that she met
only a few people that he approved of.
Some reports even suggested that Manisha's
mother was asked to wait outside the vanity
van when Ghai used to have some meetings
with Manisha. Strange thing is that Manisha
never opened up on the whole controversy,
however, she also chose to never work
again under the production banner.In an
interview back then, Manisha had said, "The
industry has welcomed me despite the
controversies that surround me. These
controversies happened because I was bold,
because I was outspoken and because I
didn't originally belong to the industry.
Despite these odds, the industry welcomed
me. I sincerely feel this industry is a
wonderful place to be in."
Well, both did patch up, but we never saw
then working post Saudagar.
