As 1993 hit film 'Aankhen' turned 30 today, actor Shilpa Shirodkar calls her experience working in the movie 바카라amazing바카라. 바카라Every Friday gives birth to a new star. That Friday was a changing point in my career too. I signed many good films, worked with many lovely directors. After that movie, people actually said that 바카라Nahi Nahi Shilpa acting kar sakti hain바카라. And of course, I started to charge more money,바카라 she shares.

Her song Angna Mein Baba is still popular today, however, not many are aware that it was Juhi Chawla who was initially offered to play the part.

바카라I had no idea that Juhi was asked to do the film. But I am glad whoever was approached said no because I got a chance to do it,바카라 says Shirodkar, reports HT.

While her character enters post interval, the actor says, it never bothered her. 바카라Honestly, I was never such a big actor. I didn바카라t have big producers, directors or banners repeating me in movies. For me working for a producer like Pahlaj ji (Pahlaj Nihalani) was, top director like David Dhawan, and being opposite Govinda was an icing on the cake. Whether I came before the interval or after, it didn바카라t matter. I just had the hope ki aage jaake unke saath aur kaam milega,바카라 Shirodkar elaborates.

The movie was called the underdog of the year, with it minting moolahs at the box office. 바카라I don바카라t remember the first review, but I remember my car was at a signal and everyone hounded the car. They all started calling me 바카라Aye Chandramukhi바카라. I knew then what a big hit it had become. More than the reviews I think it바카라s the public opinion and reaction that makes the biggest difference for an actor,바카라 she recalls.
