Utkarsh Sharma opens up on Ameesha Patel's EXPLOSIVE statements against him, wonders, "why she would say such a thing"
Anil Sharma's son Utkarsh Sharma was recently seen in Gadar 2, reprising his role as a grown up Jeete, the son of Tara and Sakina, played by Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel. However, lead actor Ameesha reportedly went on record to bad-mouth Utkarsh, saying that all plans of Anil to get Utkarsh in the limelight failed, since Tara and Sakina stole the show.
Reacting to the same, Utkarsh told Hindustan Times that even if your father is directing you, ultimately baat aati hai paise lagaane par. (Ultimately it all comes down to investment). He further said that you may know five thousand people in this industry (because of your father), but if they are taking the risk and investing their money on you, it is not because you are the son of so-and-so person, but because they see something in you, which they believe will be profitable for them also.
Commenting on Ameesha's volatile statement, Utkarsh said that he doesn't know why she would say such a thing. He said that he has no idea because he is having no problems, and getting plenty of projects. As far as the limelight is concerned, he does not know what kind of actors look for the limelight. Even if you have one scene in the film, you can leave an impact and all the actors of Gadar 2 are getting their accolades and share of work. He further added that maybe Ameesha is being misquoted.
Talking about his work plans, Utkarsh said that his focus has always been films and he came to this industry to be part of the films. He added that even during the lockdown, he was getting offers from OTT, but he was very determined that cinema was the magic he came for. OTT has its own brilliance, but cinema has its magic. He said that he may not do an OTT project anytime soon.
