Actress and dancer
Sambhavna Seth recently opened up about a painful chapter in her career — getting replaced in a song from the 2015 film
Welcome Back after shooting for nearly a week. Speaking candidly about the experience to Hindi Rush, Sambhavna revealed how deeply it affected her emotionally and professionally.
“I never really spoke about it,” she said. “I had shot for six to seven days for that song. I was the main in that song. They might have thought something and I got
replaced. Maybe someone else was the producer’s favourite. We can only think — I can’t go and ask, ‘Why did you replace me?’ They had already replaced me.”
The replacement came as a shock, not just to her, but to her fans as well. “People went to watch the film because they knew Sambhavna’s song was there.
They came and told me I’m not there in the song. I was shooting for Razia Sultan back then. I was in Gujarat. The next day, I was supposed to go watch the film. I called Ganesh (Acharya) masterji and he said he had no clue. I hung up the call and cried a lot. You do feel hurt. I’m a human being.Those who do it, they don’t feel it.”
Despite the emotional setback, Sambhavna took it as a life lesson. “These are life’s learnings. They break you and mould you into a stronger human being. It will either make you a better human being and teach you patience, or turn you into a negative person. I have learnt from these experiences.”
