Riddhi
Nepal-born Bollywood actress, Manisha Koirala has delivered several memorable performances and hits in her entertainment career.
As the actress today turns 51 years old, let’s take a look at the movies where Manisha Koirala was not the first choice.
1- Lajja
Lajja did not do that great at the box office but it is still a loved movie. However, Manisha was not the first choice for her role in Lajja. Tabu, Karisma Kapoor, and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan were offered Manisha’s role but they all rejected the offer.
2- Dil Se
Manisha’s performance in Dil Se is still appreciated but she was not the first choice for the role. The makers wanted Kajol to initially play Manisha’s part, but she could not accept the offer due to date issues.
3- Gupt
Manisha’s performance in Gupt is unforgettable but did you know that Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor were initially approached to play Manisha’s role but nothing materialized and that was when Manisha bagged the role.
