‘I Slapped Her In The Heat Of The Moment’ Esha Deol-Amrita Rao’s Fight Shocked Everyone
Bollywood fights today are a well kept secret thanks to great PR skills and the amount of professionalism that has been infused in the new-age actors. Long before the social media world took over our lives, a lot of things used to hit headlines.
Arguments, cold wars, stars walking out of a film were common headlines for entertainment magazines. One such fight between two actresses during a shoot was back in 2005 when actors Esha Deol and Amrita Rao worked together on the film Pyare Mohan.
According to reports, Esha Deol and Amrita Rao didn’t get along too well during the shooting and in one of the schedules, things took an ugly turn when Esha actually slapped Amrita and everyone was left shocked. The incident created a major buzz in the cinema world and later, in an interview with TOI in 2005, Esha did confess and elaborated on the incident.
“Yes, I slapped Amrita. One day after pack-up, she abused me in front of my director, Indra Kumar and my cameraman and I thought that was totally out of line. To protect my self-respect and dignity, in the heat of the moment, I slapped her. I have no regrets because she totally deserved it for her behavior towards me at that point in time. I just stood up for myself and my dignity,” she explained.
She also said that the two had eventually made up as professionals and that things were okay. “She realised what she had done and apologised to me and I forgave her. Now, things are fine between us,” added Esha. Well, looks like all’s well that ends well.
