Bollywood’s illustrious history has its share of dramas and catfights. The highly publicised fight between the leading ladies of Bollywood often catches the eyeballs of their fans and the columns of magazines and tabloids. From Amesha Patel-Kareena Kapoor to Mumtaz-Zeenat Amaan, there have been many quarrels in Bollywood which have now been resolved. One such was between former actresses Amrita Singh and Pratibha Sinha during the shoot of Dharmendra-starrer Kal ki Awaz in 1992. The film may not have done well at the box office, but it garnered headlines during its shoot. The leading actresses of this film reportedly fought on the sets of Kal Ki Awaz.
Kal Ki Awaz was directed by Ravi Chopra and produced by BR Chopra. It was the first time that the father-son duo came together for the film. It starred Raj Babbar, Amrita Singh and Pratibha Sinha, apart from Dharmendra in the lead roles. According to reports, the first choice for this film was Pooja Bhatt. She was busy with other films at that time and could not give her time for this film. After Pooja refused, Pratibha Sinha – daughter of the 70s actress Mala Sinha – was signed.
Amrita Singh was at the peak of her career at that time. According to the media reports, Amrita was strict about her rules. She was one of the punctual actresses of that time. Pratibha Sinha was just the opposite. She had developed a habit of coming late on the sets of the film. Amrita often faced a lot of trouble due to her late arrival.
It resulted in a huge fight between Pratibha Sinha and Amrita Singh on the set on this issue. One day Pratibha reached very late. On this Amrita Singh reportedly yelled at her and said, “Is this the time to come?”. Pratibha Sinha felt insulted.
In such a situation, she went to the media with this story and gathered a lot of attention. It is also believed that this controversy affected the box office collection of the film. The music of the film is composed by the musician duo Nadeem-Shravan.
