After
being
a
runner-up
at
the
Miss
Universe
2001
contest
and
starring
in
a
few
music
videos,
Celina
Jaitly
was
launched
in
Bollywood
by
late
Feroz
Khan
in
his
home
production
Janasheen
in
2003.
The
film
also
marked
his
son
Fardeen
Khan's
debut
in
Hindi
film
industry.
Celina,
in
a
recent
interview,
walked
down
the
memory
lane
and
revealed
how
Feroz
Khan
signed
her
for
Janasheen
over
the
phone
when
he
had
called
her
to
congratulate
for
her
beauty
pageant
feat.
Speaking
on
the
occasion
of
Feroz
Khan's
death
anniversary,
the
actress
told
Spotboye,
"The
first
time
I
spoke
to
him
was
when
he
called
to
congratulate
me
in
Puerto
Rico
on
becoming
a
Miss
Universe
Runners-Up.
He
literally
signed
me
over
the
phone
for
Janasheen."
Celina
recalled
how
Feroz
Khan
and
his
family
treated
her
like
a
princess
on
the
sets
and
said,
"During
my
first
shooting
schedule
I
was
made
to
feel
like
a
princess
and
he
and
his
entire
family
treated
me
like
their
own."
Feroz
had
co-written,
edited,
directed
as
well
as
produced
the
film,
apart
from
starring
in
it."
In
the
same
interview,
the
No
Entry
actress
also
spoke
about
her
last
meeting
with
Feroz
Khan
when
the
late
actor
was
hospitalized
for
lung
cancer.
"Even
in
his
last
days,
before
he
went
into
ICU,
my
last
conversation
with
him
was
in
his
suite
at
the
Breach
Candy
hospital.
He
tried
to
get
up
amidst
all
that
pain
to
open
the
door
for
me
like
a
true
gentleman.
The
darkest
moments
of
knowing
him
were
when
I
sat
with
his
daughter
Laila
and
son
Fardeen
outside
the
ICU,
staring
into
silence
and
the
inevitable
upcoming
moment
of
eternal
truth,"
Spotboye
quoted
Celina
as
saying.
Post
Janasheen,
Celina
went
on
to
star
in
films
like
No
Entry,
Zinda,
Apna
Sapna
Money
Money,
Golmaal
Returns,
Paying
Guests
among
others.
After
a
sabbatical
to
focus
on
her
family
life,
the
actress
recently
returned
to
acting
with
a
Zee5
short
film
Season's
Greetings.
