Bhumika Chawla Birthday
Actress Bhumika Chawla returned to the big screen after a long time with this year`s release `Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan` starring Salman Khan in the lead. During her interactions with the media earlier this year, she revisited her career and said she has no regrets. But there is one sore spot that still bothers her to this day. While she was replaced in several films, the one that hurt her the most was `Jab We Met` directed by Imtiaz Ali. Before Kareena Kapoor Khan, Bhumika Chawla was approached for the role of Geet.
After starring opposite Salman Khan in `Tere Naam`, Bhumika got offers for several big films. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Chawla revealed that she was initially offered to play the lead in `Jab We Met`. Instead of Shahid Kapoor, Bobby Deol was to play the male lead. However, the film did not materialise and it went on to be made with a different cast and production house.
