The Hindi film Gadar, released in 2001, was a massive hit. History repeated itself decades later with the release of its second installment. Both films starred Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel in the lead roles. However, it was long rumored that Kajol was the first choice to play Sakeena opposite Sunny’s character, Tara Singh. Now, the actress has set the record straight.

Was Kajol first choice for Gadar?

During News18’s Rising Bharat Summit in New Delhi, Kajol was asked about being offered a role in Gadar. The actress clarified, "Gadar was not offered to me. It was a rumour."
