Actor Ameesha Patel just lately talked about having a profitable profession in Bollywood with none ‘godfather’, whereas her contemporaries belonged to filmy households. Ameesha made her debut with Hrithik Roshan in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai (2000), which was an enormous field workplace hit. Talking about her success, Ameesha stated her contemporaries could not deal with it and it led to lots of jealousy.

Ameesha Patel’s return to movies

Ameesha on being an ‘outsider’
Ahead of the movie’s launch, Ameesha instructed Bollywood Hungama, “When I entered the film industry, I only had film actors’ kids or producers’ kids enter with me, it was Kareena Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Tushar Kapoor, Esha Deol, Fardeen Khan, you name it, you turn your head and it was a film family third generation person coming in. I was the outsider and I was anyway this south Bombay (girl) looked upon as a snob because I was the educated outsider. I was the one who did not b**** on sets, I read books, I did not gossip, so I was anyway called a snob because I chose to read.”
Ameesha on jealousy in Bollywood
“Then seeing success after success, seeing Hrithik and me becoming the heartthrob of the nation overnight and then Gadar coming in and then Badri coming in… whether it is Telugu, Tamil or Hindi cinema. God was kind, he knew I didn’t have a godfather so he gave me successful films but my contemporaries could not handle that. There was a lot of jealousy, snatching films from under your nose. There was a lot of cutting you off from films which I did not realise at that time that I have signed my films, blocked my dates but suddenly I am not on that set and a few months later someone else is,” she added.
Ameesha is busy with the promotions for Gadar 2.
