Avantika Dassani, A still from Maine Pyar Kiya
Actress Bhagyashree 's daughter Avantika Dassani, who is back with the new season of her web series 'Mithya' got candid about watching her mom's first film 'Maine Pyar Kiya' in which she starred alongside Salman Khan. Avantika speaks exclusively to mid-day.com about her reaction to the romantic drama and why she couldn't bring herself to watch it fully.
Avantika Dassani recalls holidaying with her family where people would hound her mother for pictures or autographs or to simply have a conversation. She elaborates, “The incredible thing for me is that to date whenever I meet people, especially now working in this industry, even when I'm on sets, people will come up to me and tell me, 'We're big fans of your mother'.They will tell me their story of 'Maine Pyar Kiya' and it's so wonderful because everyone has a story with that. Some would say they've watched it 50 times, they would dance to the songs, some would collect photo stamps, and so on. It's just so interesting to see that it could have that effect on so many people and be part of their memories.”
