Upasana Singh Shares Why She Lost Maine Pyar Kiya Role to Bhagyashree
Upasana Singh revealed she was initially selected by director Sooraj Barjatya for the female lead in the 1989 film Maine Pyar Kiya but was replaced by Bhagyashree reportedly because she was taller than Salman Khan. Despite an informal audition and meeting with Barjatya's father, she never received a final confirmation. The experience left her hurt, and she later confronted Barjatya's father about the casting decision during another film shoot.
