Subhash Ghai's reaction on Mahima Chaudhary’s statement
"I am amused by reading this news. Mahima & I are very good friends till date and are still in touch through messages. She is a very nice and mature woman of today. She recently shared on how she gets welcomed at every event with a song from Pardes ‘I love my India’ even after 23 years. Yes, there was a small conflict in 1997 post the release of Pardes, which became a big blockbuster and for which she even got the Filmfare award for the best actor. My company did send her a show-cause notice for flouting a clause in our agreement. The media & industry reacted in a big way and so I withdrew and canceled her contract with Mukta Arts. After 3 years she came to me with her family and apologized for her impulsive reaction. I forgave her and thereafter we became friends again. She is a jovial good person I trust. She must be right in feeling that she was bullied when asked by someone. Actually I admire her great gesture when she did a guest appearance in a song in my last film Kanchi in 2015. I guess we do get entertained with the smallest of an old tiff which is normal in the course of life in show biz."
