Having been in the film industry for years, Ayesha Jhulka has been a part of several memorable films. The actress, however, has also seen a few low phases in her career so far. After Kurbaan, the actress was asked to leave Narsimha. The 1991 release co-starred Sunny Deol and Dimple Kapadia in key roles.
Opening up about the incident, Ayesha has now said that she was put off by the incident. She was hurt that even before she began, she was asked to leave the film. “Yes, I was pretty put off with the incident. More than anything it hurt me because I had not even begun, and I was thrown out of films. It was quite a controversy, it made it to the headlines, that Ayesha Jhulka was replaced, that hurt me a lot,” she told ETimes.
The actress credited her family for being her biggest support system. She also added that the biggest rescue was the team of Kurbaan. “They said to wait till our film came out and everyone told me to not feel bad. With their support, I came out of it pretty fast and my journey began when Kurbaan released,” she was further quoted as saying.
Kurbaan was a box-office hit, and her performance was widely praised. The actress also revealed that her casting in Jo Jeeta Wahi Sikandar also had something to do with Kurbaan. Mansoor Khan, the director, saw her in a song and finalised her for the film. The director had gone to producer Nasir Hussain and told him: ‘She’s the girl…’ The actress last graced the big screen in the 2018 film Genius. Prior to that, she was a part of films like Ada… A Way of Life, Umrao Jaan, Socha Na Tha and Run among others.
