Pahlaj Nihalani claimed that Govinda's conspiracy theories about Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are the reason he has been out of action for a long time. He also alleged that David Dhawan spread lies about him to the actor.
Pahlaj Nihalani said that he thought Divya Bharti was too 'plump' when he first saw her pictures, and advised her to lose weight before she could begin working with him.
In a recent interview, veteran producer Pahlaj Nihalani opened up about late actress Divya Bharti walking out of his 1993 film, Aankhen and throwing tantrums after being cast opposite Chunky Panday.
