Veteran actress Reena Roy recently revealed her efforts to reconcile the differences between Shatrughan Sinha and Asha Parekh following a controversial incident. The situation arose when Shatrughan Sinha made some derogatory remarks about Asha Parekh in a press interview, causing a rift between the two Bollywood legends.
Reena Roy, known for her close association with both Sinha and Parekh, stepped in to mediate and resolve the conflict. She felt it was important to address the misunderstanding and restore harmony among her friends. According to Roy, she invited Sinha and Parekh to a meeting where she encouraged an open and honest discussion about the incident. She once revealed in an interview, “He had become a superstar, and he would want things to be done his way. And then, he gave some statements in the press which were very derogatory, towards him, not me. But I didn’t like it. After that, he felt bad about it, but I wouldn’t talk to him. He realised his mistake and would tell people in the unit that I wasn’t speaking to him because I was angry.”
During the meeting, Sinha expressed regret over his comments, explaining that his words were taken out of context and were not intended to hurt Parekh. Asha Parekh, who was deeply affected by the remarks, appreciated Sinha’s explanation and willingness to apologize. Roy’s efforts in facilitating this conversation helped both parties to see each other’s perspectives and move towards reconciliation.
