"The whole set went silent after...", Shah Rukh Khan was once slapped by an actress because..,her name is.., she is now... In the glamorous world of Bollywood, many actors come to Mumbai with a suitcase full of dreams to make it big on the silver screen, but there are rarely a few who manage to earn that fame and leave an impact. However, there was one such actress who captivated the hearts of millions as soon as she entered the industry. From her natural innocence to her strong performance, she soon rose to fame and left a remarkable mark on the audience, even with her career that was short-lived. The actress we are talking about is none other than Priya Gill. Priya entered the industry in the 90s. Her debut film was 'Tere Mere Sapne', but it was her films like 'Pehli Pehli Baar Mohabaat Ki Hai' and 'Dilbar' that rose her to fame. But besides her soft-spoken beauty and effortless performance that still resonated with the audience, there was one particular incident from her early days of her career that continues to be talked about. This popular incident was with the Badshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, and recalls it as her 'most embarrassing moment'. During the shoot of the film Josh, they were shooting a scene where Priya had to slap Shah Rukh Khan. But the shoot wasn't coming through as expected, even after taking multiple retakes. Director Mansoor Khan wasn't satisfied with the shot and asked her to put more emotion even, Shah Rukh Khan encouraged her saying 'Mujhe In order to deliver the shot perfectly, Priya slapped Shah Rukh Khan with full force, so much so that the entire set went silent and the sound of the slap echoed. In an interview, Priya openly revealed that even after 25 years of these incidents, it remains the most embarrassing moment of her career. She said, 'It was the most shameful moment of my career,'. Even though Priya was just doing her job and emoting the scene she was asked to, she still recalls it with shame and disbelief. Gill also expressed her love and admiration for Shah Rukh Khan, she said, 'I don't know whether you know, but I'm like a… I won't just say I'm a die-hard fan, because fans are only related to the acting side. I've always liked Shah Rukh. When I was studying, I used to watch him on television. He used to come in the serials, and then he became a huge star. But you know, you never think that one day you're going to be with this guy. And I was totally in awe of him.' Priya had a short film career trajectory, but despite that, she captured the hearts of many. Stepping away from the limelight, Priya said she is now living a peaceful life with her family in Denmark.

Mumtaz Recalls Emotional Final Meeting With Shammi Kapoor: ‘He Said He Won't Live Long'
Last Updated: Veteran actress Mumtaz opened up about her love story with Shammi Kapoor and the heartbreak of witnessing his decline. Once labelled a B-grade heroine, Mumtaz rose like a phoenix in the glitzy world of Hindi cinema. Her big break opposite Dilip Kumar in Ram Aur Shyam (1967) flipped the script of her career entirely, transforming her from an overlooked name to one of the most sought-after stars in the industry. Ironically, the same heroes who once refused to work with her suddenly found her captivating — both on and off screen. This meteoric rise also brought with it a fair share of rumours, particularly surrounding her relationships with co-stars. The most talked-about among them was her romance with the ever-charming Shammi Kapoor. In a recent candid conversation on Radio Nasha, Mumtaz bared her heart, revisiting old memories, relationships, and the raw emotions behind her glamorous façade. In the teaser clip, she recalled how actor Jeetendra once dismissed the idea of working with her. 'Jeetu, I'm sorry, but this is what you said — 'Jeetu said, ap Mumtaz ko kyu le rahe ho?'" she shared with a hint of mischief and melancholy. 'Nobody wanted to work with me," she added, pulling back the curtain on the industry's early rejection of her. Speaking about her equation with her Tere Mere Sapne (1971) co-star Dev Anand, she said affectionately, 'Dev Anand used to call me Mumzi… all my heroes used to love me." Mumtaz, never one to shy away from her truth, acknowledged the buzz around her name. 'Often there used to be reports of my romantic link-ups with co-stars because they all loved me." But it was her enduring bond with Shammi Kapoor that continues to tug at heartstrings. 'Shammi Kapoor was so good-looking that no girl could resist crushing over him," she said. When asked how their love story began, Mumtaz quipped with a smile, 'Aapne bhi toh pyaar kiya hoga, aapko kaise hua?" To which she added, 'He also proposed to me." Their romance was tender yet complicated. Shammi wanted Mumtaz to give up her career at just 17, something she wasn't ready for. 'I don't think anyone can give me the same amount of love that he showered on me. I never forgot him," she had told 'Even today, when his name is mentioned, tears well up in my eyes. It was not a love affair; it was much more. We loved each other deeply." Recalling their final meeting, she shared, voice cracking with emotion, 'He was still drinking… I asked him, 'Why are you drinking when you are not well?' He said he wouldn't live for long. And I told him, 'Then drink, enjoy yourself.' What else could I say? I couldn't stop him. I sat with him a while and came back. I couldn't see him dying." Ending her reflection with a poignant shayari that encapsulates the ache of parting, Mumtaz said: 'Hum bhi toh dekhe zamane ki yaari, bichhade sabhi baari baari…" First Published: May 23, 2025, 19:36 IST
