Bhagyashree Birthday: Did You Know The Maine Pyar Kiya Actress Was Supposed To Work With Akshaye Khanna in Souten Ki Souten?
Bhagyashree is one actress who reached great heights with her first film, Maine Pyar Kiya. The latter is one of all time highest-grossing movies in Hindi in India. The fame was instant but the actress decided to leave the limelight for married life. Now she can be seen back in front of the screen and it gives us hope that there will always be a second chance. But there have been reports that Bhagyashree was part of other movies as well. One of the announced ones was titled Souten Ki Souten, which is now shelved. As corny as it sounds, the film had Akshaye Khanna opposite her. But she wasn’t the only opposite of him!

This was Bhagyashree’s comeback to movies after marriage and two kids. Bhagyashree, Salman Khan Recreate ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’ Moments on ‘Bigg Boss 15’.
