Ishaa Koppikar. (TOI Photo) It was after shooting for a dance sequence in Jahnu Barua���s Har Pall that Preity Zinta and Ishaa Koppikar realised that their outfits in the song were similar - just the provocation for a masaledar Bollywood catfight.
And that���s what the rumour mills did - turned it into a war of words between the two actresses.

There was buzz about a fallout between them over their costumes.
The two actresses play roommates in the film, and Preity was apparently miffed to see that Ishaa���s outfit similar to hers. But while Preity���s clothes have been designed by her pet designer Surily Goel, Ishaa���s were made by Payal Saluja.
Ishaa���s currently shooting in a remote area in the country, but spoke to BT refuting the rumours. Says Ishaa, ���First of all, it���s stale news, because it happened sometime in September. I don���t know why it���s being brought up now. There was no tiff between Preity and me. What really happened was that both of us were wearing black jackets to cover our outfits. But our dresses beneath the jacket were completely different. While Preity was wearing a red top with a black short skirt, I was wearing a fuchsia dress. But since both of us wore black jackets and boots, it looked similar. So Preity, the director and I had a discussion about it. In fact, it was Preity who said it would be unfair to ask me to change my clothes at the eleventh hour.���
So is the issue sorted? ���Yes. It wasn���t as big an event as it���s being made out to be. The scene has also been canned. We���ve gone ahead with the same outfits,��� she says.
