Mahesh Bhatt Insulted Sushmita Sen
Talking about the incident which made her very angry after Mahesh Bhatt insulted her, Sushmita Sen told Twinkle Khanna in an interview, “He is a fabulous director, I will give him that because he broke an ambition in front of 40 media people and 20 production guys, publicly attacking me. I started crying, ‘I told you I can’t act, why you called me for this, I don’t know how to act.’ He’s like, ‘kya leke aaye ho (what have you brought to me), playing Miss Universe like this on camera. She can’t act to save her life.’” Also Read: Rashmika Mandanna Reveals How She Bagged A Role In Animal Opposite Ranbir Kapoor

Talking about Sushmita Sen being vocal about her relationships, Twinkle recalled the time when ‘famous men were claiming to be virgins’ and appreciated the former Miss Universe for being more straightforward about her personal life. Responding to it, Sushmita said on Tweak India, “If you lose yourself you are nothing that’s been my standard belief in life. Be it plastic surgery, men in my life, relationships, married men–whatever you think is a bad thing, it exists.” Also Read: Aamir Khan On His First Heartbreak: Main Bohot Accha Tennis Player Ban Gaya

Danke ki chot pe kiya hai (It’s not the person who is small, but others’ mindset and heart. You think we have not made any mistake in life? We have done plenty.) I don’t carry any guilt about them, because I never bullsh*t about them.”
