Vikram Bhatt confesses affairs with Sushmita Sen & Ameesha Patel: Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt has seen much turmoil in his personal life. He recently went candid in an interview and discussed his past relationships, where he opened up about his difficult relationship with his ex-wife, Aditi Bhatt.
He also talked about his romantic affairs with Bollywood actresses Sushmita Sen and Ameesha Patel in the early 2000s.

Speaking to Siddharth Kanan in an interview, when the filmmaker was asked if his film Ankahee was based on his life, he replied, "Yes, quite a bit. I'd say semi- fictionalised... I think my situation with Sushmita and my wife."
He then added, "It was not incident based, ki aapki zindagi mein aisa hua tha kya (if something like this happened in your life), no, it didn't happen like that. Sometimes you take the emotion and fictionalise it. So it was a real emotion in a fictionalised story."
When the host asked if making the film had bothered his wife Aditi, Vikram answered, "If I have blamed anyone then it was me, I neither blamed Sushmita's character, nor my ex-wife. Then why would anyone be upset? I have the right to beat myself up."
He went on to add that he is not sure if Sushmita was upset about the same or not and stated, "I don't know, I never asked her. See, I have a right over my life but not on anybody else's life. So even when I write on (Twitter) threads, I write what's my truth, what has happened with me."

The 1920 director revealed that it was his romantic relationship with Sushmita that ended his marriage with his childhood sweetheart, Aditi. When asked if he regretted that, Bhatt said, "I don't regret anything in my life, not one thing, not one mistake."
He added, "I have made mistakes, a lot of mistakes, but I have learnt from them, maybe there's a lot more learning left to do, but this is my sole journey."
The filmmaker also revealed that he had called both Sushmita and Ameesha to apologise to them. "I made these phone calls very early on. That's why I had gone to Bhatt sahab (Mahesh Bhatt) that was a part of the phone calls. But Sushmita, Ameesha... See, these are the relationships that were spoken about in the press but these are not the only relationships. I have more relationships, there were others as well who came into my life and nothing is incomplete in my mind today. I feel complete. That's what I am saying, if you look at it as your sole journey then you don't need a closure," he said.
