Harshvardhan Rane is on cloud nine as his film ‘Sanam Teri Kasam‘ along with Mawra Hocane as re-released in theatres. The good part is that it is doing much better this time around than it did when it released originally. It re-released on February 7 and turned out to be a sleeper hit. It made more than Rs 15 crore on its opening weekend. Incidentally, Mawra Hocane who starred in the film opposite Harshvardhan, recently got married. The actor said that this success is like a wedding gift for his co-star Mawra.
Meanwhile, in a recent interview, Harshvardhan also reflected upon the nepotism aspect in Bollywood. He said during a chat with India Today, “Honestly, I am someone who believes in writing down things rather than just believing the voices floating around me. When people talk about star kids getting all the opportunities, I write their names and realise 8 out of 10 have already vanished from the scene. Hence, I am not able to feel resentment when I do the mathematics and realise how outsiders are the ones who continue to get good work. How can we not look at their success? I can thus never bring myself to complain about it.”
He added, “This is not any kind of positive affirmation, but it’s facts. I think every time someone has a doubt, they should make a note. There are no biases or partialities, just hard facts. Not many star kids have found work eventually, and it’s the outsiders who are at the top.”
‘Sanam Teri Kasam’ is directed by Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru.
