Actor-director Deepak Tijori, who is busy promoting his upcoming film ‘Tippsy’, recently recalled the time when Saif Ali Khan's first wife, Amrita Singh, had stopped the ‘Dil Chahta Hai’ actor from supporting his first film.


Deepak Tijori, in a recent conversation with Zoom, shared that during his first film, ‘Pehla Nasha’, he wanted help from his industry friends. He further shared that Shah Rukh Khan, Saif, and Aamir Khan had promised their support to the actor, but there was one moment which really shocked him. He said, “There was a moment by which I was really surprised… Shah Rukh (Khan), Saif (Ali Khan), and Aamir (Khan), who were coming. So Saif was getting ready at home, this is his version, when he was getting ready at home, Dingy (Amrita Singh), his then-wife, asked him, ‘what are you doing? Where are you going?” 


When Saif told Amrita about Deepak’s film, she discouraged him from going. He further said, “So, she was like, ‘Really? How can you do this? We never did all these things. Who does this? You go and support somebody on a premiere shoot’.” He further revealed that during the 90s “people were going everywhere to support everybody” in the fraternity.
