During
her
recent
tete-a-tete
with
an
entertainment
portal,
actress
Ameesha
Patel
recalled
being
called
arrogant
during
her
initial
days
in
Bollywood,
because
of
her
rich
brat
image.
She
revealed
that
she
was
a
bookworm
and
owing
to
the
same
reason,
many
people
perceived
her
as
an
arrogant
actress.
Ameesha
told
Pinkvilla,
"I
was
portrayed
as
arrogant
and
snobbish
and
this
typical
south
Bombay
rich
brat.
Because
on
the
sets,
I
would
not
indulge
in
idle
gossip
and
bitching
about
people
or
talking
them
down.
Someone
else
has
a
hit,
I
would
always
be
happy
that
he
or
she
has
done
a
great
job."
She
further
revealed
that
many
people
from
the
media,
as
well
as
the
film
industry,
used
to
make
fun
that
her
Kaho
Naa
Pyaar
Hai
co-star
Hrithik
Roshan
came
on
sets
in
a
Maruti,
while
she
came
in
a
Mercedes.
"I
used
to
read
a
book.
I
am
a
bookworm.
I
can
read
a
book
in
three
days.
So
I
used
to
get
told
that
Ameesha
ji
is
very
arrogant,
pata
nahi
apne
aap
ko
kya
samajhti
hai
(Don't
know
what
she
thinks
of
herself).
Just
because
she
is
from
a
big
khandaan,
on
the
first
day
of
shoot
she
came
driving
in
a
Mercedes.
They
used
to
make
fun
that
Hrithik
came
in
a
Maruti,
Ameesha
came
in
a
Mercedes.
But
there
was
nothing
to
show
off.
That
was
my
upbringing,
my
hobby.
I
was
never
brought
up
to
talk
bad
or
ill
about
anyone," revealed
the
Gadar:
Ek
Prem
Katha
actress.
With
respect
to
work,
Ameesha
will
next
be
seen
in
the
sequel
to
Gadar
opposite
Sunny
Deol.
