decision?

all
about
it.
Shamita
Shetty
Turned
Down
Lagaan
For
Mohabbatein
Yes,
you
heard
that
right!
Shilpa
Shetty
told
Neha
Dhupia
that
her
sister
Shamita
dropped
out
of
the
Aamir
Khan
starrer
in
favour
of
Yash
Chopra's
Mohabbatein.
"Both
were
big
films
and
supposed
to
come
out
at
the
same
time,
so
she
had
to
choose," Shilpa
revealed
on
her
podcast.
The
role
eventually
went
to
Gracy
Singh.
When
Shamita
Shetty
Reflected
On
Her
Career
After
making
her
debut
with
Shah
Rukh
Khan-Amitabh
Bachchan's
Mohabbatein,
Shamita
delivered
a
string
of
flop
films
before
she
took
up
a
few
reality
shows.
Speaking
about
her
career,
the
actress
said
in
an
IANS
interview,
"I
have
not
done
that
many
roles.
I
have
not
been
a
part
of
that
many
films
for
a
while.
There
is
a
lot
that
I
would
like
to
do...
Maybe.
I
have
said
no
so
much
that
eventually
worked
stopped
coming
to
me
but
I
never
stress
on
quantity.
For
me,
quality
matters.
You
are
taking
out
time
from
your
life
to
do
something
that
you
love
and
you
should
be
happy
doing
it.
I
don't
want
to
do
a
film
just
for
the
sake
of
it.
For
me,
I
guess,
I
just
had
to
pick
the
best
from
what
came
to
me."
On
The
Other
Hand,
Shilpa
Shetty
Had
Confessed
That
She
Was
Insecure
When
Her
Sister
Made
Her
Bollywood
Debut
"I
always
felt
she's
the
better
looking
sister,
the
fairer
one.
She's
a
better
actress
and
a
dancer.
So
I'll
admit
this
for
the
first
time
on
this
show
that
when
she
debuted,
I
did
feel
that
nobody
would
give
me
work
anymore
after
that,"
Shilpa
told
Pinkvilla
in
an
interview
this
year.
Meanwhile,
Shilpa
Shetty
is
all
set
to
make
her
comeback
in
Bollywood
after
a
gap
of
13
years
with
Sabbir
Khan's
Nikamma.
The
film
stars
Abhimanyu
Dassani
and
marks
the
Bollywood
debut
of
YouTube
sensation
and
singer
Shirley
Setia.
The
team
recently
wrapped
the
shooting
schedule
of
the
film.
