**Mumbai, India** – Mamta Kulkarni, a prominent Bollywood actress of the 1990s, has recounted a previously untold anecdote from the set of the blockbuster film *Karan Arjun*, revealing a playful yet potentially tense encounter with co-stars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. In a recent interview with India TV’s Rajat Sharma on *Aap Ki Adalat*, Kulkarni, who has since renounced her acting career and embraced spirituality, detailed an incident where the two Khans allegedly snickered at her and later Salman shut a door in her face.
Kulkarni described how, during the filming of a dance sequence choreographed by Chinni Prakash, she was called to the set only to find Khan and Khan passing by, snickering. She further explained that a subsequent solo dance step assigned to her was flawlessly executed on her first attempt, while the Khans struggled with their own, leading to multiple retakes and ultimately a frustrated director calling a wrap. Upon returning to her room, Salman Khan allegedly intercepted her and shut the door in her face.
Kulkarni’s account offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the making of the iconic 1995 film. While she denies yelling at the Khans, as previously rumored, her story sheds light on a potentially awkward interaction amidst the pressures of a major film production.
This revelation comes as Kulkarni continues to make headlines for her recent spiritual journey. She received the title of Mahamandaleshwar at the Maha Kumbh 2025, but was subsequently removed from the position following protests. Despite these recent events, her recollections of the *Karan Arjun* set have captivated audiences and reignited interest in her past career.
