News is trickling in from Berlin about frosty vibes between two beauty queens-turned-actresses who are shooting for a major Bollywood action-movie sequel. The ladies, who started their movie careers together, debuting in the same film opposite a popular khiladi star, haven’t been on friendly terms for some years now.
Both ladies had separately assured the producer there will be no awkwardness or tantrums while shooting together. And to be fair, there have been no catfights… yet. But unit hands reveal that the actresses barely exchange any words. The set has been divided into loyalists of either lady, and while the more successful one has found favour in the male superstar (with whom she’s already worked before), the other has a senior character actor, who plays the chief baddie, on her side.
Apparently the two actresses have avoided working together after their debut, but neither wanted to turn down this film opposite Bollywood’s biggest star. While one appeared in the first instalment of the franchise and was asked to reprise her role in the sequel, the other was approached for a smaller part.
