Piyush Mishra said – It is good that ‘Maine Pyaar Kiya’ was not done, otherwise I would not have been able to handle stardom.

There have been reports that Sooraj Barjatya had signed Piyush Mishra for the lead role in the film ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’, but Salman Khan replaced him/her. Last year, Piyush Mishra himself had said in an interview that the makers were in talks with him/her for ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’, but the talks did not work out and then Salman was taken. But Piyush Mishra has now said that it was good that he/she did not sign the film. This is because he/she cannot handle stardom. However, Piyush Mishra said that talks were going on with him/her for the role, but nothing was finalized. Piyush Mishra told ‘Zoom’ in an interview that he/she was in NSD when he/she was approached for ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’. The conversation was going on. Piyush Mishra said, ‘It is not that I became a star or got a role.’

Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai’s video won the hearts of fans, the simplicity of the stars made the common public happy.

‘It was no big deal’

he/she further said, ‘The conversation was in the initial phase and I had talked to Sooraj Barjatya’s father. he/she came to meet me and he/she did not cast me. I was in third year when this incident happened. This was not a big deal, but it was blown out of proportion unnecessarily. I was on the verge of becoming a star, but could not become one.

‘Had it been me, I would not have been able to handle stardom’

Piyush Mishra said that many people tried to instigate him/her to take advantage of the situation and claimed that Salman Khan replaced him/her in the film, which is completely false. Piyush Mishra said that deep inside he/she is happy that he/she could not get this opportunity because he/she could not handle stardom.

Salman Khan cried during the shoot of ‘Kabootar Jaa Jaa’ in ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’, the actor told what happened after 35 years

‘People provoked me to take advantage’

Piyush Mishra said, ‘he/she wanted me to claim that the role has been snatched from me. But it is not true. After that I did a lot of work. Had that happened by chance, I would have got that big opportunity much ahead of time, at an age when I probably wasn’t mentally, physically or emotionally ready. I was a 26-year-old boy then, I couldn’t tolerate success. My mind would be blown. I can’t handle that kind of stardom and I accept that. I was not ready for this, so it was good that this did not happen to me.

Salman’s first film as a hero was ‘Maine Pyar Kiya’

‘Maine Pyar Kiya’ was released in the year 1989 and was a blockbuster. Salman debuted as a hero with this film and it was also the first film of Bhagyashree.
