Neelam Kothari Once Fought With Ektaa Kapoor Over Samir Soni’s Explicit Scenes
Neelam Kothari is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films. She made her Bollywood debut with Ramesh Behl’s Jawaani in 1984. She took a break from the industry in 2001 to start her own jewellery-designing brand, Neelam Jewels. The actress returned to showbiz in 2020 with Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives alongside Maheep Kapoor, Bhavna Pandey and Seema Sajdeh.
Neelam Kothari fought with Ektaa Kapoor, over Samir Soni’s intimate scenes
Neelam Kothari married actor Samir Soni in 2011 and is extremely possessive of her husband. During a recent interview with Zoom, Neelam revealed that she once got into a huge fight with her close friend Ektaa Kapoor. She revealed that they had fought over an intimate scene because Samir had to perform in a show she was producing. Neelam Kothari had previously revealed in an episode of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives that she and Samir Soni check in with each other before signing any film that includes such scenes. She shared:
“I am very possessive about my husband. I got to know that he had some intimate scenes, which is fine. I didn’t know to what extent those scenes were and Ektaa happened to be the producer of that show. So I didn’t speak to Ektaa for almost 3-4 months because we had this rip-roaring fight.”
Neelam shares that she has learnt her lesson
In the same conversation, Neelam revealed that when she fought with Ektaa Kapoor, the latter snapped back at her. She shared that she has now learnt her lesson and understands that it’s his profession. She further added that after many fights with her best friend and husband, she had now learnt that it is Samir’s profession and certain scenes an actor has to do, which she needed to be okay with. She stated:
“I was like, ‘How could you make my husband do this?’ And she was like ‘Didn’t your husband read the script before doing it?’ So there was this rift that happened. It’s over now. I have also learnt my lesson that it is his profession. There are certain scenes that an actor has to do which is absolutely fine. Now, I am okay with it. After many fights, and that to fighting with my best friend and my husband at the same time. I have learnt my lesson, zip it.”
Samir Soni had once revealed that Neelan Kothari’s friend instigated her about his role in the film.
During a conversation with GPlus, Samir Soni revealed that he had already discussed his role with Neelam and made sure she was okay with it. He shared that one of his wife, Neelam’s friend, had instigated her. He further added that at that point in time, he couldn’t have done anything and felt stuck as the script had already been given to him. He shared:
“Apparently, one of her friends had seen the show, and she had instigated her, ‘How could you let your husband do something like this?’ and all that. I told her that I showed her the script. At this point in time, I can’t say no to producers because they had already given me the script and I can’t say no to my wife.”
