New Delhi. The relationship between Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty is well known. These two actors dated for some time, but their love could not be consummated in real life. Even though the real life love story of Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty could not be completed, whenever the pair came together on screen, the audience applauded and whistled heartily. The pair of Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty has been seen together in films like ‘Main Khiladi Tu Anari’, ‘Dhadkan’, ‘Janwar’ and ‘Insaaf’. The film we are talking about here today is the romantic drama film ‘Dhadkan’ released in the year 2000.
Along with Akshay Kumar and Shilpa Shetty, Sunil Shetty and Mahima Chaudhary were also seen in important roles in ‘Dhadkan’. The songs of this film, adorned with tremendous acting by these four actors, were also wonderful. The song from the film ‘Dulhe Ka Sahra Suhana Lagta Hai…Dulhan Ka To Dil Deewana Lagta Hai’ is still the soul of every wedding. The songs made this film more popular. The album of this film was the second best selling music album of that year.
It was not at all easy for the makers to bring this film, adorned with many romantic songs, on the screen. According to media reports, this film was stuck for almost 4 years. In the year 1996, Dharmesh Darshan directed the superhit film ‘Raja Hindustani’. This film was a huge hit after which everyone was eager to work with him. In such a situation, he got an offer to work on the story of a film written by Naseem Mukri.
The film was on hold for many years
When the proposal for this film was presented, the director was working on Twinkle Khanna’s film ‘Mela’. In such a situation, he had put the film on hold for a long time, but then after some time he released ‘Dhadkan’. However, the interesting thing is that both the films ‘Mela’ and ‘Dhadkan’ were released in the same year.
Become a villain and win award
When the film ‘Dhadkan’ was released, it created a stir at the box office. Made with a budget of Rs 9 crore, this film did a good business of around Rs 26 crore. While Akshay Kumar was seen in the image of a romantic hero in the film, Sunil Shetty showed a lot of attitude as a villain on screen. Sunil Shetty was greatly loved by the audience in the role of villain and he was also given the Filmfare Award for Best Actor in Negative Role for his excellent performance.
