Deepak Tijori reveals Amrita Singh tried to stop Saif Ali Khan from ‘supporting’ his first film, left him ‘shocked’: ‘Who does that?’

Deepak Tijori, who is currently promoting his upcoming film Tipppsy, recently spoke about his time in the Hindi film industry in the 1990s and recalled how there was a camaraderie between actors back then. He then shared an anecdote revealing that Saif Ali Khan’s then wife, actor Amrita Singh, had once stopped him from supporting Deepak’s first film as a protagonist Pehla Nasha and that incident “shocked” him. He shared that for his first film Pehla Nasha, he needed the help of some of his celebrity friends for a cameo. And while Aamir, Shah Rukh Khan and Saif had promised their support, one moment really left him “shocked.” He shared with Zoom, “There was a moment by which I was really surprised… Shah Rukh (Khan), Saif (Ali Khan) and Aamir (Aamir), who were coming. So Saif was getting ready at home, this is his version, when he was getting ready at home, Dingy (Amrita Singh), his then wife, asked him, ‘what are you doing? Where are you going?”
