Mamta Kulkarni says Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan played pranks with her during 'Karan Arjun'; reveals why she did item number in Raj Kumar Santoshi's 'Ghatak'

Mamta Kulkarni, known for her roles in films like Karan Arjun and Krantiveer, shared some interesting stories about her experiences working with stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, and Akshay Kumar. She spoke about her memories and the dynamics on set with these famous actors.

In an interview with Rajat Sharma's Aap Ki Adalat, Mamta shared a fun incident from Karan Arjun, where Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan played pranks on her during a dance sequence. Initially, both were supposed to dance with her, but last-minute changes left her to perform alone. After her flawless take, she noticed the actors hiding and laughing. In the next shot, SRK and Salman had to walk on their knees, resulting in 25 retakes in front of a large crowd.



When asked who was more playful between Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, Mamta Kulkarni responded that Salman was the more mischievous one.

Kulkarni further explained that she agreed to do the item number in Ghatak after director Raj Kumar Santoshi's request. The film had been delayed for seven years due to issues with its lead actress, Meenakshi Seshadri. Mamta performed the dance sequence as if it were a stage show, a format she was comfortable with.

Mamta has also made it clear that she has no plans to return to the film industry, stating she has fully embraced her role as a sanyasin. Despite fans expressing their desire for her return, she emphasized that she has made up her mind and has no intention of returning to films.
