Did You Know Manisha Koirala Reunited With SRK For A Film After Dil Se? Here’s Why They Didn’t Work Together Again
Manisha Koirala recently in an interview opened up about not working with Shah Rukh Khan again after Dil Se!
Over 26 years have passed since the release of Mani Ratnam’s Dil Se, a film that remains a cult classic to this day. Although Shah Rukh Khan and Manisha Koirala’s on-screen chemistry was widely appreciated, the duo never collaborated again post-Dil Se. Recently, Manisha Koirala shed light on the dynamics behind their lack of subsequent collaborations.
Manisha Koirala On SRK
In a recent discussion, Manisha Koirala pointed out that male leads often have the upper hand in deciding their co-stars, suggesting that Shah Rukh Khan chose not to work with her following their project together. This revelation hints at the traditional power imbalances in Bollywood, where the decision-making often rests with the male actors. Besides Dil Se, Koirala did work briefly with Shah Rukh Khan in the lesser-known film Guddu, but their professional paths seldom crossed again. She reflects on this as part of a broader industry pattern rather than an isolated incident.

Despite Dil Se’s critical acclaim over the years, it was not a box-office success at its time of release. Mani Ratnam has attributed the film’s initial commercial failure to his limited proficiency in Hindi, which may have affected the movie’s dialogue and overall reception. On a personal note, Koirala also spoke candidly about her experiences in dating. She admitted to a series of unsuccessful relationships, leading her to a period of self-reflection and personal growth. Currently, she is focusing on herself, indicating a break from dating as she works through personal issues.
