It’s only natural I suppose when two actresses are part of the same film that there is bound to be some friction when it comes to promoting the project. In this case I’m talking about Ameesha Patel and Puja Gupta who are apparently promoting the same film Shortcut Romeo – but separately.
And come to think of it we saw Ameesha cut two birthday cakes here and here, but Puja didn’t get a piece of the action.
My spy reveals that recently a TV channel put in a request for Ameesha to join Puja and do a joint interview, but the former rejected the idea outright saying she can’t be giving interviews with a “junior”.
Ameesha said she would do a seperate interview and the journalist can use her interview along with Puja’s in the same frame should they so desire. Eeks, considering Puja has been part of three successful films – Faltu, Oh My God and Go Goa Gone I wonder what it’s going to take Miss Patel to let her in the “cool kids club” or wait, is that green monster rearing it’s ugly head again?! Or did she just not like looking like the tiny one on the Red Carpet at Cannes?
PS. The only person who doesn’t seem to be complaining is Neil Nitin Mukesh. I guess he’s getting double the footage double the fun with both Puja and Ameesha?!
