कभी स्कूल की फीस भरने के नहीं थे पैसे, बिस्किट खाकर भी गुजारी रातें, फिर दे डाली 850 करोड़ कमाने वाली फिल्म

ओटीटी के लिए ठुकरा दी थी 900 करोड़ी
परिणीति चोपड़ा हाल ही में अपने पति राघव संग इंडिया टीवी के सुपरहिट शो ‘आप की अदालत’ में नजर आई थीं. इस दौरान उन्होंने अपनी लव स्टोरी का खुलासा किया. उन्होंने बताया कि एक ओटीटी फिल्म के लिए 900 करोड़ी फिल्म ठुकराई थी. एक्ट्रेस ने बताया कि, ‘परिणीति चोपड़ा फिल्म ‘एनिमल’ की पहली पसंद थीं. इस फिल्म में रणबीर कपूर के साथ रश्मिका मंदाना नजर आईं थीं. लेकिन रश्मिका का किरदार के लिए पहले परिणीति चोपड़ा को चुना गया था. लेकिन उन्होंने चमकीला के लिए इस फिल्म का ऑफर ठुकरा दिया था.

यूं शुरू हुई थी प्रेम कहानी
परिणीति ने अपनी बात आगे रखते हुए बताया, ‘मैं लंदन में थी एंटरटेनमेंट में आउटस्टैंडिंग अचीवर अवॉर्ड लेने पहुंची थी. वहां राघव पॉलिटिक्स एंड गवर्नेंस में पुरस्कार लेने आए थे. मेरे भाई उन्हें बहुत पसंद करते हैं और उनके बहुत बड़े फैन थे. भाई के कहने के बाद ही मैं उनसे मिलने गई. लेकिन वहां ज्यादा बात नहीं हो सकी और फिर मुंबई में मिलने की बात हुई. लेकिन उन्होंने कहा यही कल ही मिल लेते हैं. दूसरी मुलाकात में हम करीबन दस लोग एक साथ थे. इतने लोगों में वह अचानक उठे और प्लेट लेकर आए और खाना शुरू किया. मैं उसे देख रही थी, यार कितना सिंपल बंदा है. मैंने सोचा, ‘मैं इसी शख्स से शादी करूंगी’.

बता दें कि बॉबी देओल और रणबीर कपूर की एनिमल ने ताबड़तोड़ कमाई की थी, वहीं चमकीला कुछ खास प्रदर्शन नहीं कर पाई थी. लेकिन बावजूद इसके एक्ट्रेस को फिल्म छोड़ने का कोई मलाल नहीं हैं, उन्होंने कहना है इस फिल्म से जो सुकून और जो हमसफर मुझे मिला. उसे बड़ी और कोई सफलता नहीं हो सकती.
