Any source for this?
On YouTube if you watch the making of DTPH you will see Yash Chopra saying "Madhuri was the first and only choice".

Er...sorry for butting in...but she was indeed the first choice for DTPH but not for Madhuri's but Karishma's role...
well said indeed it is, which is why i think for aish, her no.1 priority wil always b her baby... jus like it was for jaya n other actresses, kajol, madhuri, karishma etc... they al put their kids b4 career...Originally posted by: KripaRajput
There is more to being a MOTHER than just giving birth. Its a lifetime commitment.

it wil b dif 2 find old articles... wil b surprised if u do..becos here 1 is talkin abt ova a decade ago articles...they r difficult to find... mst of the links hav expired by nw so i doubt u wil find confirmation... so the onli thing to follow wud b wt the movie ppl say... personally i believe the role was made for madhuri---she was awesome in it...Originally posted by: sweet coco
@Star: okay so first it was offered to Sri Devi and she rejected it.
Link for that: http://www.sridevi.biz/Just%20for%20fun/Roles%20rejected%20by%20Sridevi.htmand then aishu was offered it and she didn't do it for some reason:I can't find the exact article, and I tried looking for it. I hope VG can find if not then I shall try later.So looks like Sri Devi was 1st choice and not Aishu---sorry my bad,😳 But all directors change their words after the final Heroine is selected, so not surprised YC said Madhuri was his first and final choice.
@bold...👏thank u ksh, u stole evry word i wntd 2 say... i dnt gt y ppl ask 4 proof...wt proof do they hav tht she was NOT recommended... plus we r talkin abt ova a decade ago articles---they hav obv expired by nw... anyway, if they choose 2 believe he didnt recommend her then thats their choice, i choose 2 believe she was... lets jus leave it at tht... plus like ne1 wil admit they wer recommended for a movie... i.e. many say tusshar recommended prachi 4 life partner, ask her this or him this, n they wil say NO! ...so my point is these stars wil neva admit 2 ne1 helping them gt 2 wer they r... its all solely their hard work... bt believe me in bollywood no1 gts ne wer without connections n contacts... u need tht connection/contact 2 gt movies n thn there is a period wherein u need 2 prove u r wt the audience wnts... i.e. katrina, she aint tht gd at acting, bt she gts so many offers becos she has a huge fan following n they wil cum watch her movies regardless of hw small or big her role is, as a result the film earns money...sadly thts al wt bollywood is abt nowadays, making money, no1 cares abt the depth of storylines n concepts...Originally posted by: kshreya2002
How difficult it is to believe that Ash was recommended by Salman for HDDCS? There were strong rumours about the same way back then. Now dont ask for proof because those were not the days of internet when everything was on the net. It was in magazines like CineBlitz and also in local newspapers. It was common then (and even now) that when a hot new chic enters Bollywood every big star wants to work with her to 'get to know her better'. For example now everyone wants to know Nargis Fakhri better. In those days Ash was a rising star fresh from the success of Miss World. She got many films but didnt have THAT one film that put her in the A list. Salman recommended her for HDDCS as SLB's other choices(Madhuri et al) refused to work in the film after the debacle of Khamoshi. But he recommending Ash doesnt take away from her contribution to the success of the film.
Coming to this film if the news is true then power to more working moms in Bollywood. I am sure Ash got this film without anyone's intervention. And all the best to her on the fate of the film.
I have always wondered about this classic Madonna song (La Isla Bonita). It's iconic and SLB copied it in Guzaarish. It is shameful that he used...
What do we make of this? I will be so happy for her https://x.com/callmehohoho/status/1972702498092716431?s=46...
I would like to say I enjoyed Deepika in SLB's Baijaro Mastani. Her dances and looks were heavenly. Acting is debatable, but Deepika made the...
